I don't have the CME spec in front of me but if I recall correctly, they remove punctuation chars from the FIX formatted field and convert the resulting number to a uInt64. I don't know if the start with a second resolution or a milliseconds resolution format.

I suggest you check with the support at the CME.

Best,
Rolf
