Odd data in message box

[Ralph DiMola]

This what I get here in the eastern US time zone(gmt-4). Looks Correct to
me.

Command:

put the seconds into x;put convertToLocalTime(x) into y;convert x to
dateitems;convert y to dateitems;put x&cr&y

Message box results:

2020,10,16,12,20,25,6

2020,10,16,16,20,25,6

Subject: Odd data in message box

I get a bunch of data from my server.  In this array, there are some dates.
I roll through each one converting the date to local time:

function convertToLocalTime sTime  //sTime is already been converted to
seconds format
  //convert the time using the hour offset for local time zone
  put word 6 of the internet date into timeOffset
  put (abs(timeOffset))*1 into timeOffset
  put timeOffset/100 into timeOffset
  if char 1 of timeOffset = "-" then
    put ((timeOffset*60)*60) into pTimeOffset
    put sTime - pTimeOffset into sTime
  else
    put sTime + ((timeOffset*60)*60) into sTime
  end if
  
  return sTime
end convertToLocalTime

There is no problem with this function, and it's producing the correct time.
However, when it's all said and done, I get this in the message box:

Any thoughts?
