Hey guys, Once I capture a BMessage in the message_print_hook() function and look at each message that goes through, I also look into the "when" attribute/property which I assume is the timestamp variable. Its an Int64 variable and on printing it out to the console, the number itself does not make any sense (although I can see it increasing with each second). Is there any attribute in the BMessage that reflects the actual time of the creation of the BMessage (for example, 15390009092009 to say the BMessage was created at 3:39pm on 9th Sept 2009? If not, I would assume I would have to pull the system date itself then :). Cheers, Yash
