Hi,

I have two functions that have a timestamp wtz passed to and return timestamps wtz in a refcursor.  The catch is that I need the timezone on the timestamp passed out to match the timezone of the timestamp passed in. I realize I can set the timezone parameter before making the call, but I'm concerned that if a user calls it with a timezone that is different than the timezone parameter the date they get won't match the timezone they requested.

Is there a way I can specify timezone as a parameter and force the timestamps in the where and select clauses to use that timezone? (without having to set the timezone parameter in the session)

Thanks

Jed.
