Problems with Timestamp

 I am working on the latest version of Labview ( 2009 ) and I have encountered this problem. I am trying to generate hourly timestamps for storage into a database using  a while loop and and incrementing the timestamp using build unit string. the problem I am facing is that the timestamp is not incrementing when the timestamp is 1am on November 1st,2009 . The timestamp remains at 1am for two iterations which is creating a duplicate entry in my database. 
I am also facing another problem. When I store the timestamp into the database with one hour increments, it does not seem to be incrementing by one full hour. This is leading to a loss of few seconds as the loop progresses. I tried changing the formatting but this does not seem to be working. time_increment

Daylight Savings Time

 

The two "1-o'clock" values differ by the DST flag only.
