I have a column in a sas dataset whose format and informat both are datetime26.6
I need only date and time with hh:mm:ss.
I tried reading date column using datetime26.6/anydtdte./anydtdtm. format but none works.

Does anyone have any idea how to read and convert the given column.

Milliseconds are stored as decimals, so round the value using the ROUND function.
