CURRENT_TIMESTAMP VS SYSTIMESTAMP problem

741904Mar 29 2010 — edited Mar 29 2010
Hello to all,

I try to ajust the session time in ordre to make it fitting well with the country where I live: Bruxelles. But when I change the session nothing happend.

Those are my values:

SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, SYSTIMESTAMP, LOCALTIMESTAMP FROM DUAL;

29-MAR-10 12.57.05.473971 AM -07:00
29-MAR-10 12.57.05.473953 AM -07:00
29-MAR-10 12.57.05.473971 AM

When I do: alter session set time_zone= '-2:00';

SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, SYSTIMESTAMP, LOCALTIMESTAMP FROM DUAL;

29-MAR-10 12.58.24.014152 AM -07:00
29-MAR-10 12.58.24.014139 AM -07:00
29-MAR-10 12.58.24.014152 AM

Nothing seems to have been changed. How could I mofify my session time to fit the time of my country?
(In fact it's currently 18h14 at my place)

Thank you for any help.
Claude
