Problem with date/time

HI every one,

     When I changed the Time Zone in Personal Information of my salesforce account, I am able to see the date, time change in the records of Custom objects correctly. But when I am working on SOQL queries(On custom object records) ,I am unable to get modified date,time values. But its taking original date,time values only, 

 

   How to rectify this problem, so that modified date,time values may work in soql queries also.

 

Please let me know if you need more clarification.

 

Thanks in advance,

Naresh

By default queries returns the date and time in GMT format. You can use the format method over the Date/Date time fields. This will format the value according to the currect Locale.
