The ToHex(object) syntax has these parts:
| object | An expression evaluating to an object of type FileBlob |
Remarks
WARNING: you should not use this method with large files, or large amounts of data!
The ToHex property will return a HEX representation of data currently contained by the Blob. It is most often used because it is easier to represent binary data this way for transfer by text-only services, such as email.
To get such HEX data back into the Blob, you should use the
FromHex method.
