I'm curious if there's a way, with SQL2k, to look at a binary/varbinary
field and return a record based on its content - i.e. if a certain position
within the value is 1 or 0.

Say I've got a value, 11. That's got 1,2,and 8 in it - basically, 1101.
Say I've got another, 9 - that's got 1 and 8 in it, or 1001.

I'd like to be able to restrict a query by getting all records that have the
'2' position present in the binary value stored in the field - in the case
above, the record that has '11' in it would return, and the record with '9'
would not.

Is there a way to do this with SQL2k? Or, is there a BETTER method of
tackling something like this?
