Thanks for the previous responses.

I am playing with using Hex2CharInt to create the checksum. I have a problem where this runs ok:

     SELECT Sys_Calendar.calendarall.calendar_date,
     Sys_Calendar.calendarall.month_name_long,
     CHAR2HEXINT( Sys_Calendar.Calendarall.month_name_long) AS intcode
     FROM Sys_Calendar.Calendarall  ;

This has a bad character in format or data of intcode error:

     SELECT Sys_Calendar.calendarall.calendar_date AS ordate,
     Sys_Calendar.calendarall.month_name_long,
     CHAR2HEXINT( Sys_Calendar.Calendarall.month_name_long) AS intcode,
     intcode + (ordate (INTEGER))
     FROM Sys_Calendar.Calendarall  ;

Why would the bad character become an issue in the summing , but not the CHAR2HEXINT as part of select?
