The millisecond print seems to be off, with Write bar data to file. I verified it with a spreadsheet column formula.

Zeroes right after the decimal point are missing when there are fewer than three decimal numbers.

This is a correct print by the study:

2023/1/25  08:36:05.520

But this one is wrong:

2023/1/25  16:00:08.11

It's missing a zero – it should be:

2023/1/25  16:00:08.011

This one:

2023/1/20  15:03:30.9

is probably actually:

2023/1/20  15:03:30.009

It is extremely unlikely there is an issue with this. Look at the actual raw text file in a text editor.

I use Notepad++, but that's not what creates this problem.

Here's a recent, concrete example from Sunday night, using an ESH23 47-tick range bar (true - no gap fill). Write Bar Data to file produces this, in part:

2023-1-29  18:00:00.0  4077.00  4085.75  4074.00  4085.75
2023-1-29  18:14:06.176  4086.00  4086.00  4074.25  4074.25
2023-1-29  21:57:15.18  4074.00  4076.00  4064.25  4064.25

The spreadsheet A column has 2023-01-29 21:57:15 for the third line above. But here's what you get for this time, which ends in .18 in the text file, with the following spreadsheet formula: =round(fractime(A3)*86400000,0): 79035018. You don't get 79035180.
