Steven,
For decimal to hex, a to_char function using the "X" element can be used.
There are certain restrictions -- refer to the Number Formats table in the
SQL manual for more info. Here is an example:
1* select to_char(10,'XXX') from dual
SQL> /
TO_C
----
A
For a more robust solution that goes both ways, and, deals with conversions
between various bases, take a look at:
