Hi  
I want to show msec in the Event Time column for alarm Journal by changing the dateFormat property to “MM/DD/YYYY HH:mm:ss.SSS” but it show always 000.  
I wonder what is the proper syntax for msec.

Is the alarm journal table actually configured to retain milliseconds inserted to it?

Hi Phil  
Of course. The vision journal and perspective alarm status table show in msec.

@Travis.Cox @Colby.Clegg I am noticing the same thing still. In “Visions” Alarm Journal, I am seeing the same .000 when specifying SSS for milliseconds. Any ideas?
