I've a database with a column of date in UTC timezone.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

Could have a column specifying the time zone and than execute sql stmt like this

  " SELECT timeZone, timeStamp
    FROM tableName
    WHERE timeZone='UTC' "

could pass a variable in the where clause like this, this is how id do it in php

$TimeZone2Query = 'UTC';

" SELECT timeZone, timeStamp
  FROM tableName
  WHERE timeZone='$TimeZone2Query' "
