Hi, Can you please provide some information on sc.CurrentSystemDateTimeMS as I can't seem to find anything in the documentation which includes information on the Millisecond component of the time vale; everything seems to relate to HMS Minutes, Hours, seconds only without information on how to get the Milliseconds component which I think is the purpose of the sc.CurrentSystemDateTimeMS SC function? I have looked here http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SCDateTime.html, searched for it's use in the ACS folder and also searched the support board but couldn't find anything. I can get the HMS component easy enough, but not the millisecond component; // Get the hour, minute, second for the time DateTime = sc.CurrentSystemDateTimeMS; LastSystemTime = TIME_PART(DateTime); TIME_TO_HMS(LastSystemTime, Hour, Minute, Second); Time = HMS_TIME(Hour, Minute, Second); //System Time in SECONDS from the LastSystemTime - Uses Variables Hour & Minute to calc TIME_TO_HMS(Time, Hour, Minute, Second); MessageString.Format("Hour: %d, Minute: %d, Second: %d", Hour, Minute, Second); sc.AddMessageToLog(MessageString, 1); I am trying to display time as 14:24:14.656 so I can include a millisecond delay of my choosing using a while loop. Any pointers will be appreciated
