You need to retrieve a hex value. 20. will not do that. It is for
decimal input only. It would choke on a, b, c, d, and f and would treat
e as the start of the exponent field.
Check out the HEXw. informat.

Subject: Re: Convert decimal values to hexadecimals
Well, right after I found out how to convert the 8 digit decimal number
to a hex value I re-read the instruction and realized that I
misunderstood something the first time.
Now I have the problem, that I first have to retrieve the hexadecimal
value for the whole bigint unsigned decimal value from MySQL.
When I use a numeric informat like input(userid, 20.), will the
precision be enough to retrieve the correct hex value?
