<< I am having trouble downloading a file that has one of the fields as Variable-length hexadecimal data type (Vhex) in client access file download to PC. Every field is converted properply to Asci except the field with Vhex that gets downloaded as hex numbers. >> This has to do with the CCSID. If the field is not DDS described, it defaults to CCSID 65535. Click on File/Properties in your Client Access download, check the "convert CCSID 65535" box. This will convert the field to ASCII. This problem will occur with any field not DDS described, such as a results field in Query.
