title: Determine my time zone offset using VBScript?
body: <p>How can I determine my <strong>time zone offset</strong> using <strong>VBScript</strong>?</p>
  
  <p>The Windows OS provides the <code>TZ</code> environment variable. For Eastern Standard Time (New York), its value is <code>EST5EDT</code>. However, I am looking for the signed integer offset from UTC. (This is <strong>-5</strong> for Eastern Standard Time.)</p>
