The only way I know of to force a format other than the default on an input statement is by means of a CAST function. The following works on my TD 12:

     CREATE TABLE SomeTable
     (IntCol INTEGER
     ,DateCol   DATE
     , TsCol TIMESTAMP(6))
     PRIMARY INDEX( IntCol)
     ;
     INSERT SomeTable (IntCol, DateCol, TS_Col)
     VALUES (311123
     , '2009-01-08'
     , CAST('01/10/2010 04:16:48.000000'  AS TIMESTAMP(6) FORMAT
     'MM/DD/YYYYBHH.MI.SS.S(6)'))
     ;

HTH,
