Hi SC, Previously i had asked you about extracting the scid file data into another environment, which i was doing according to the Intraday data file format documentation page. Intraday Data File Format However, after the SCDatetime change, my extraction code is not able to decrypt scid correctly. may i know what are the sizes of the following: 1. Intraday record header 2. Intraday record size |

This is all documented on the page you linked to. The actual data structures are shown there. The size of those structures has not changed. SCDateTime contains a 64-bit integer.

when i unpack the record, it shows the datetime as 1.891136406826626e-308 the help doc says this is the 'This is a 64-bit integer. It represents the number of microseconds since the SCDateTime epoch of December 30, 1899." in order to convert microseconds to a date&time, it needs to be 16 digits long but how do i convert this value into a 16 digit microsecond equivalent? i am using dataRow = struct.unpack('d4f4I', record), is the formatting ('d4fdI') wrong? thanks for any help getting this into a 16 digit microsecond |

is the formatting ('d4fdI') wrong?
Yes, instead use 'q4f4I' which means: 'long long (aka 64-bit int), 4 floats, 4 unsigned ints', as per s_IntradayRecord. |

You need to read it as a 64-bit integer. And then use the SCDateTime::SetInternalDateTime to set it into a SCDateTime object.
