Can't you just use to_char function to convert from decimal to hex?
select to_char(255,'xxxxx') from dual;
TO_CHA

If all NT monitoring tools display threads id in hex and Oracle in
decimal, if I were you, NT folks, my natural laziness would incite me to
create the following function :
create or replace function dec2hex(n in number)
return varchar2
is
v_result varchar2(20) := '';
v_characters varchar2(16) := '0123456789abcdef';
n_remain number;
n_pos number;
begin
n_remain := n;
while (n_remain > 0)
loop
n_pos := mod(n_remain, 16);
v_result := substr(v_characters, n_pos + 1, 1) || v_result;
n_remain := trunc(n_remain / 16);
end loop;
if (v_result = '')
then
return '0';
else
return(v_result);
end if;
end;
/
and, instead of selecting p.spid in the query above, query
substr(dec2hex(to_number(p.spid)), 1, 9)
I hate converting between decimal and hexadecimal :-).
