Post From: Please update DTC protocol documentation and header files

This will be corrected in the next release:
The header file is incorrect (the new one, too), because this field should have t_DateTime type, not t_DateTimeWithMillisecondsInt. Interestingly enough, it is incorrect only in the header file, whereas the .cpp contains the correct type: t_DateTime s_OrderUpdate::GetOrderReceivedDateTime()

We see why there was this inconsistency. Although Sierra Chart does use this particular 64-bit Date-Time integer, to hold a millisecond timestamp. So it is a thousand times higher when Sierra Chart is using these messages. Although you would not have these millisecond timestamps, when using the DTC Server but it is possible to signal Sierra Chart to do that.
