So do I.

Subject: Re: Converting an into to hex to char
About cvthc() and cvtch(), the length parameters for both functions represent the length of the longer "character" value.
So for converting from x'1234' to '1234', you would pass 4 as the length value to cvthc.
And for converting from '1234' to x'1234', you would pass 4 as the length value to cvtch.
(I find these two functions to be monumentally confusing.)
