Change in Data Structure?

Hi,
I am exporting bar data to a txt file with the function: Export bar data to text file. I do this for daily data. The problem I am having is, that since I updated my Sierra Charts (Version 2065 64bit) from Version 1856 64bit, the columns I can download have changed. With the old Version (see screenshot) I got more columns. Now I don't get NumberofTrades, BidVolume and AskVolume anymore, which I used to.
Is there something wrong in the settings, or did you change the data structure?
Please instruct.

What you see is correct. This is documented here:
Edit Menu: File Data Fields

Historical Daily charts do not have number of trades, bid volume or ask volume data. The number of trades column was always the open interest.

The newer versions now have the correct header line for historical Daily and higher timeframe charts.
