change information in the header

Hi Labview users,

I collect data with a DAQ and store it in binary files just like in the ContAcq&GraphVoltage. There is a 'create header.vi' there which add to the binary file information about time and about the scaling parameters. You all must have seen how a file like this (and in particular  the header) looks like after conversion to text:

There are 2 questions I am dwelling on:
1.  The first column does never change regardless the files regardless the date of the recordings. I suppose it should be the date but it;s always the same. The second column which corresponds to the clock(hour'minute'second) always starts from 02:00:00. Why not 00:00:00?
2. I would like to have the clock format only in miliseconds. First, it is more manageable , second, with the current format, Matlab has problems in separating data columns.

Do you have some solutions for me? I would very appreciate that.

Thank you in advance,
Dana
