That is wrong because first argument of valuewhen function has to be a condition returning true or false but your hipoint variable is not a condition but just a price array.

Anyway as for the first post it is pretty simple:


Code: 
periods1 = 80;
bars = HHVBars( H, periods1);
dt = Ref( DateTime(), -bars );

Nonsense!
Would you please care to read the AB help.

Code: 
periods1 = 80; 

hi = HHV( H, periods1);
bars = HHVBars( H, periods1); 

dt = DateTime();
dthigh = Ref( dt, -bars );

Filter = 1;
format = 1.2;

AddColumn(C , "close", format, -1,-1);
AddColumn(Hi, "HHV", format, -1,-1);
AddColumn(bars, "Bars", 1, -1,-1);
AddColumn(dthigh, "DateTime of HHV", [b][color=#990000]formatDateTime[/color][/b], -1,-1, 120);
As for Date() function.. it returns string!!
Again would you please care to read the AB help instead of dancing in the dark.

TRY Now
Code: 
function DateNumToStr(DtNum)
{
  DayNm = round(frac(DtNum/100)*100);
  MthNm = round(frac(DtNum/10000)*100);
  YrNm = int(DtNum/10000)+1900;
  return NumToStr(DayNm,1.0)+"/"+NumToStr(MthNm,1.0)+"/"+NumToStr(YrNm,1.0,False);
}   



period1=80;

HIPOINT=ValueWhen(H=HHV( High, period1), H ,1) ; //this will return Most Recent HIPOINT

BARNUMBER=ValueWhen(HIPOINT, BI, 1); //this will b bar number of Most Recent HIPOINT

HiPointDtNum=ValueWhen(BARNUMBER ,DateNum() ,1); //DtNum of BARNUMBER

HiPointDATE=DateNumToStr(HiPointDtNum);  //Date of BarNumber in DD/MM/YYYY format, u can change the format in above DtNumToStr  function

Title= "HIPOINT"+"     "+ HIPOINT + "        " + "HIPOINTDATE"+ "     "+ +HiPointDATE;    // will display HIPOINT & HiPointDt on ur Chart Title
