Alan,

Unfortunately no.  However, I've just implemented something that extends the 
date parsing and allows for the specification of a decimal hour format, e.g. 
dh1,dh2, dh3, dh4, etc. The number refers to how many decimal points there are. 
So for your data you can use the format:
Time[fmt="yyyyMMdd dh2" ...]
For now the dh2 needs to be at the end of the fmt string. This will be 
available in tonight's build.
 
Drop a line if you have any problems with this.
