X'F1F2F3' = 15856371

Thank you all for your input. I'll find the book mentioned above online. The
purpose of this was to prepare input data for some program. I did this in
Perl already (I hoped RPG just has some instruction to do this which I did
not know - I'll try to find some information about using C functions in
RPG). I wrote only one easy RPG program so far - changing a spool file to
postscript for beautiful printing, and I just would like to keep learning
RPG. For the moment the problem is solved, but I'll try to write such a
procedure in future.

Thanks again 
David

When you say that you want to convert a string to its hex value, do you
mean: x'F1F2F3' becomes 123 or 15856371?  ...
