Parameter Descriptions
value This parameter specifies a source datastore field/column or the hexadecimal value that will be converted into binary.
Example
Translate a three (3) byte field, BINARY_FIELD, that contains the binary value F0B1CA into its hexadecimal character representation, the length field contains the value 6. It will map it to target field HEXCHAR.
HEXCHAR = X2B (BINARY_FIELD )
Results in the source binary number being converted to a six (6) byte hex character equivalent of the number ('F0B1CA') being mapped to the six (6) byte field HEXCHAR.
