All:

Credit to Albert Berry last weekend for the clue: "... how about importing text?"

Forget about importing from the [hh:mm:ss.000] formatted data input column ("B", below). Not prudent, won't work.

Create an Export Column ("C", below) with Data Type [General], with the TEXT function:

  A      B            C
  TimeID INPUTColumn  EXPORTColumn
  ------ ------------ ------------------------
1 1001   12:45:30.987 =TEXT(B1,"hh:mm:ss.000")

Import to R:BASE from ExportColumn "C". Works flawlessly with both the FILE GATEWAY and the GATEWAY IMPORT XLS command.

Thanks for your patience.
