  • Intraday Data History, how can I read the bar time?

    I am a VB programmer and made a simple program that simply write intraday data to a txt file.

    The problem is that data returned by GetBar function does not contain the TIME filed because the dtTime fiels only contains DATE value.

    Is it possible to associate a time to an intraday bar received with RequestHistory function?

    Thanks

    The DATE datatype includes the time (as well as the date). I'm not a VB programmer so I don't know what you need to do to access it, but the data is there. Or at least, I know I receive the time when I receive intraday bars and ticks.

    The DATE datatype is really just a double precision floating point number. The integral part represents the day and the fractional part represents the time.
