Data conversion - Binary to Character

["Jon Paris" <Jon.Paris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 >> Basically what is happening is I have a program that is triggered off of
multiple files.

In this case, you have no real choice but to either do as Barbara said
(which I alluded to earlier) and overlay a character field over one of the
correct definition and then substring into the char and move out of the
numeric.  Alternative to substring (and the one I'd use) is to use a based
field and set the pointer based on the field's offset in the buffer.

Now that I know you're doing XML stuff, I seem to recall that someone
published a utility a while back that did what you want except it output it
in comma delimited format I think.  Anyone else remember that?
