You can turn HEX ON or OFF in an Edit macro but you can't do it for a specific record. You can do it yourself in your edit macro and insert the hex info as a note or message line below the real record.
I cobbled this together - it is a quick/dirty example of an edit command that will add message lines below the request line with the hex values in a vertical format: /* rexx */ Address ISREdit 'Macro (line)' '(data) = line' line hex = c2x(data) parse value '' with hextop hexbot do i = 1 to length(hex) by 2 hextop = hextop''substr(hex,i,1) hexbot = hexbot''substr(hex,i+1,1) end 'line_after' line '= infoline (hexbot)' 'line_after' line '= infoline (hextop)' The results of using it with EHEX 3 - I named my test macro ehex 😊 000003 'Macro (line)' ====== 447D88994498985744444444444444444444444 ====== 00D413960D3955DD00000000000000000000000 000004 '(data) = line' line 000005 hex = c2x(data) Hope this helps Lionel B.

That may help us determine if HX is the best way or the use of HEX ON and proceeding to use ISREDIT commands from there.
