  We are using ActiveReports in a web application and we have users in multiple time zones around the world.

  How do I set the offset or time zone to use for ReportInfo timestamps when rendering a report?

  So after digging around in ILSpy, I came up with this:

  // set rundatetime for reportinfo controls
  report.ReportStart += (sender, eventArgs) =>
  {
      var runDateTime = report.GetType().GetProperty("RunDateTime", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Public);
      runDateTime.SetValue(report, dateTimeInCorrectZone);
  };
  

  I’m surprised there’s not a better way to do this, but at least it works.
