Hi,
WHAT DO I WANT TO DO:
I want to have the binary value of a part of a decimal value.
1)I have a decimal value in column called intag : 262204
2)From this value I'am only interested in the last two bits of the HEX value of
this decimal
HEX value = 4003C
My interest 3C
part of used SQL query: substring(HEX(intag), (length(HEX(intag))-1), 2)
3)For the last two bits(3C) I like to have the binary value
HEX value = 3C
Binary = 111100
Final SQL query: BIN(substring(HEX(intag), (length(HEX(intag))-1), 2))
PROBLEM
When running the last query, the returned value is 11 instead of 111100.
Probably it has something to do with the fact that I requested a substring of
length 2. What do I need to do to get the complete binary value?
If one you SQL geniuses knows this, please let me know.
Thanks in advance
FS
