This pretty much agrees with what I was getting.
The answer depends on the level of accuracy provided by the platform and
the UniVerse release.
If fractions of seconds are not "available" then the seconds are
'multiplied' by 1000.
Dunno how that helps.
OCONV("123450000","MTS") is not pretty
There is a new CONFIG option in the latest releases of UniVerse - 10 and
above, I think
TIMEACCURACY
When this is on
TIME() and SYSTEM(12) returns something like 49950.434
Fortunately, OCONV seems to handle the new decimal format.
I am still a bit nervous what this is likely to do to our legacy code.
This is not something I can turn on when needed.
It is an all or nothing. Change it then restart UniVerse.
Something else to look out for when upgrading.
Thanks to everyone for helping to confirm that I am not hallucinating -
this time.

Subject: Re: [U2] UV time milliseconds option
When I run this on UV 10.1.18 (windows):
$OPTIONS TIME.MILLISECOND
STIME = SYSTEM(12)
NAP 500
ETIME = SYSTEM(12)
DISPLAY STIME
DISPLAY ETIME
DISPLAY (ETIME-STIME)
END
I get the output:
40473687
40474187
500
Are you saying you get "1000" when you the same code?
