title: SAS Time format precision: milliseconds
body: <p>I have a field in my SAS dataset that contains the number of seconds since midnight. For example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>34204.050479
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can convert this number in SAS using the <code>format time10.</code> which gives me the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>9:30:04
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I wish to have greater precision than simply hours,minutes, and seconds. Can I get the following in SAS:</p>
  
  <pre><code>9:30:04:ms
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>where <code>ms</code> stands for milliseconds? </p>
