Thanks for asking this question. I decided to switch the time display
in Windows XP to 24 hour. Now, I have a question. Is there a way to show TWO times in the XP toolbar? I'd like to show local (EST) time as it is currently and also have a label "UTC HH:mm" which would be local + 5 hrs, except when on DST which would be local + 4 hrs. Is there a way to do this? Thanks, Al ================= Mark wrote: Control Panel, then Regional Settings. Select the 24-hour clock option. Mark. Auckland, New Zealand. "Les" wrote in message ... I would like to display UTC in my tool bar but when set up for UTC it is in the 12 hr format not the 24 hr format. Is their any way I can do this or is their a program I can download to display UTC on my desktop? Using XPHome for operation Sys. Thanks Les |

Hi Al,
If you mean showing two clocks in the "System Tray" as its called, then no, you can't do that. But there's quite a few free downloads out there that will allow you to configure a number of clocks and display them on your screen. Mark. "Al Patrick" wrote in message ...
