<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Having installed a fresh installation of 11.2, for some reason, the thought of making an OME function to convert a hex string into its integer8 equivalent came to mind. And so:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Yep, that looks good! Now for some error testing:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Lucida Console"">select hex2int('wrong')<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And in fact whenever my code finds a condition in which it generates an error, I get the above error at the front end rather than my error text. Nothing comes into the errlog.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can anyone shed some light on that one please.<o:p></o:p></p>
