Having difficulties displaying dates across different timezones. Used

Having difficulties displaying dates across different timezones.

Used 'usertimezone(pp!initiator)' to capture the initiator's timezone (stored in a text field).
When we display the dates in subsequent screens we use 'local (pv!datetime,timezone) This does not display the correct time.
Now store the dates as text - yes they display correctly, but now have a new problem.
We use the pv!date_time values for validation. If we hide the date_time fields validation fails, if we display date_time, validation works but we have confusion showing allt he dates.

How can we get one solution that will work?...
