Importing Excel Serial Numbers into Matlab

Hello all,

I have columns of dates and times down to the SECOND, and I'm trying to import them into Matlab, BUT when I do, instead of keeping the decimal places, Matlab rounds the serial number.

So in Excel, I have this: 40544.6048611111............................and when I import it to Matlab, it gives me this: 4.0545 e004............................................PLEASE HELP!!!

Thanks so much.

format long

and you'll see it's probably importing all of it just not showing it to you.
