Question

I am looking for a method which can fetch available time zones.
Using .net framework 3.5 I got method to do the same, but I am looking to fetch it using .net framework 2.0.

.net framework 3.5 specific code is as follows;

Dim timeZones As ReadOnlyCollection(Of TimeZoneInfo) = TimeZoneInfo.GetSystemTimeZones()
For Each timeZoneInfo As TimeZoneInfo In timeZones
    Console.WriteLine("{0}", timeZoneInfo.DisplayName)
Next

Thanks in advance for any kind of help.

I believe this article contains the source that is compatible with .NET 2.0:

If you grab their source you can check out how they did GetTimeZones method for their TimeZone class.
