There isn't a direct function but long string from couple of weeks ago about going from character to hex will work with the logic reversed.
Unless you just want to convert half word or full word to Decimal in which case 77 number-half pic s9(4) comp. -- this is cobol definition for asm of DS H. 77 number-decimal pic s9(5) comp-3. - cobol for decimal format. move number-half to number-decimal. Odd lengths like 3 byte or 1 byte require redefines and char manipulation.
