Hello all, It appears that based on Oblio's previous suggestion, binaryEncode(data, "Hex") might be what I'm looking for. However, binaryEncode() appears to be new to CF 7. My client is still on 6.1 and doesn't have the funds (or will) to move to 7 yet (argh).
Is there something like a binaryEncode(data, "Hex") in CF 6.1 or another way to achieve this with cf 6.1?
