Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Radix gives the same result:

:RADIX

        XTD             OTD             BTD
        DTX             DTO             DTB

        ADDX            ADDO            ADDB            ADDD
        SUBX            SUBO            SUBB            SUBD
        MULX            MULO            MULB            MULD
        DIVX            DIVO            DIVB            DIVD
Input action code =  XTD

Input Hex String or New Action Code =    0102E84669
Decimal 48776809

The number above is larger than 32 bits....some of the inbuilt routines 
like BITAND etc fail on anything greater than 2^32 maybe this includes MCX etc.

Try doing the above in a loop manually, just repeatedly trim off the last 
digit and build up the decimal value from that.
