[DB-SIG] Definition of Timestamps ?!

Does anyone know why the ODBC definition of the fraction
part in timestamps is nanoseconds, while the SQL standard seems
to use microseconds ?
I don't know if it's a bug in the ODBC driver of my database (ADABAS),
but it stores timestamps using nanoseconds by rescaling them
to microseconds and then retrieves them without doing the opposite
conversion. When I pass in microseconds everything works fine...
MySQL doesn't store the fraction part of timestamps at all it seems.
What about other DBs and the Windows ODBC manager ?
Thanks for any tips.
