History Element (Regional Settings)

Applies to: SharePoint Foundation 2010

Used in TIMEZONE.XML (%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\14\CONFIG) to preserve former time zone definitions, so that, after the new 2007 time zones take effect, time values for 2006 and earlier will still be calculated correctly.

<History
  Year = "Integer">
    <StandardTime>
      ...
    </StandardTime>
  <DaylightTime>
      ...
    </DaylightTime>
