IBrokers date/time index?

Hi all,

I requested historical data using IBrokers. However, there should be
time in the indices of the time series, not just only the dates.
That's to say, the indices should be of the format: 2009-05-04
HH:MM:SS.

Could anybody tell me how to access those times in the indices?

Thanks!

2009-05-04   884.56   907.88  882.90    907.88          0       0           0
2009-05-05   905.01   907.92  897.27    903.69          0       0           0

Daily data (as in your example) doesn't include seconds that matter.

You can of course do anything you like by simply reading the source  
and writing your own code.
