Er, thanks for clearing that up, Paul! ;-) - Dan Bale -----Original Message----- From: pcunnane@learningco.com [mailto:pcunnane@learningco.com] Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2000 10:14 PM To: 'RPG400-L@midrange.com'; Bale; Dan Subject: Re[2]: Passing Parms to an RPG Program "BTW, somebody correct me if I'm wrong on calling X'057F' a hexadecimal representation. It's really a split-byte representation. I.e. decimal 57 converts to hexadecimal 39." It's a hexadecimal representation of a string, but not exactly a hex representation of the number. Probably the most accurate description is that it is a hexadecimal representation of a string containing a packed binary-coded decimal number. !! -- Paul Cunnane +--- | This is the RPG/400 Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to RPG400-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to RPG400-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to RPG400-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
