hi Raimund, R2 parses binary data as a string (Although some argue otherwise), you always get string type results. In R2 strings and binary are pretty much the same internally. Its possible the to-string implicit convertion was kept in R3 since, AFAIK, parse hasn't actually been rewritten yet in R3.
