Notifies the server about the time zone on the client with standard SET TIMEZONE query when connection is being opened.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

Server stores time with time zone and timestamp with time zone in UTC. When the server is accepting a value without timezone specified explicitly it uses TimeZone for respective adjustment to UTC.

If the TimeZone property is not set, provider uses client's local time zone. Setting this property can be useful when you need the server to convert to a specific time zone, which is different from the client's local time.
