Time converison

I want to convert different time zones considering day light saving in c#.

How can i do this.Please suggest a solution.

I have tried this

int timezone;

TimeZoneInfo localZone = TimeZoneInfo.Local;

DateTime myTime = DateTime.Now;

bool isDayLight = TimeZoneInfo.Local.IsDaylightSavingTime(myTime);

if (isDayLight)

{

timezone = Math.Abs(localZone.BaseUtcOffset.Hours) + 1;

myTime = myTime.AddHours(1);

}

else

{

timezone = Math.Abs(localZone.BaseUtcOffset.Hours);

}

In above code i have given TimeZoneInfo.Local but i need to implement for all timezones.

Thanks

Prachi

DateTime timeUtc = DateTime.UtcNow;
TimeZoneInfo cstZone = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("Central Standard Time");
DateTime cstTime = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeFromUtc(timeUtc, cstZone);
Console.WriteLine("The date and time are {0} {1}.",
cstTime,
cstZone.IsDaylightSavingTime(cstTime) ?
cstZone.DaylightName : cstZone.StandardName);
