Mr. Thampi,

        This is a bug in my code, I didn't check the unit and use the default 
time unit which is standard base time known as "the epoch", namely January 1, 
1970, 00:00:00 GMT. I am planning to make the change, but not sure when this 
will be available to you. Since you are doing the conversion, the work around 
for you is to use the default base time in your time unit to make it worked in 
the IDV. I will keep you posted when the new release available.


Yuan


 Awaiting some help from your end on that count.
