Answer 1

Hi Grzegorz Glowacki,
I am sorry this is not working :(.
Sample input: 4E2D56FD     -->basically this hexavalues are chinese character representation.
Output for it: ?????????
+for verification:open Wordpad-->copy the hexcode >select 4chars at a time> hit <altx> and you will get corresponding conversion value.++
String result = new String();
try {
  byte[] bytes = new byte[input.length()/4];
    for (int i = 0; i < input.length()/4; i++) {
      byte value = Integer.valueOf(input.substring(i*4,i*4+4), 16).byteValue();
      bytes<i> = new Byte( value );    *//Byte cannot be stored in byte*
    result = new String(bytes, "UTF-16");
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e){}
return result;
Also this is PI7.0 system. please do help.
thanks in advance.
Regards,
Prakash.
