Re: Church Bells

No need to upgrade your windows.
First you turn off the daylight change feature in windows.
Then you use the windows task scheduler to call "SetAhead.bat" or
"SetBack.bat"




Tell the task scheduler to perform SetAhead.bat at 1:30 AM
on the appropriate day of the year:

SetAhead.bat:
'--snip-------------
Time 2:30
del DidSetBack.flg
'--snip-------------




Tell the task scheduler to perform SetBack.bat at 2:30 AM
on the appropriate day of the year:

SetBack.bat:
'--snip-------------
if exist DidSetBack.flg goto gone
Time 1:30
echo hello > DidSetBack.flg
:gone
'--snip-------------



Put these bat files in C:\Windows and then call them at
the right time each year.

That will change the system clock ahead and back as needed.
