Tomasz if that is the case, it would be very helpful if there was a
function that would allow for cross-referencing DateTime and DateNum
since these are 2 AB internal datetime formats..or perhaps you know of
any easy way to do it?


Most of the systems developed are probably still EOD systems so while
working  with Backtester you get DateTime and no means of converting
DateTime to DateNum..
