| Details |
The VMSTIME. informat is specific to the OpenVMS operating environment. You cannot specify a width with this informat; the width is always 8 bytes.
OpenVMS date and time values that are read in with the VMSTIME. informat retain precision up to 1/100 of a second, even though the SAS System cannot display anything less than whole seconds. If you later use the VMSTIMEF. format to write out the date-time value, the precision is retained.
