RE: Mcsec in Timestamp, is it possible?

Dmitri,
I am very sorry that I did not pay closer attention to your original note.
The only ways I know are to do a WRITE to a disk record with a Z field in it
(don't refer to the Z field in your program) or to use embedded SQL like so:
c/exec sql                                           
c+ select current timestamp into :wrkTime from onerec
c/end-exec                                           

You should create a work file with one record in it for efficiency.  But
won't, the cost of calculating those fractions of a millisecond be greater
than the resolution you're looking to achieve?
