Search for a Hexadecimal String

If the data you are searching for contains special characters that are not on your keyboard, you can search for them by specifying the hexadecimal value of the string (in single quotes) followed by the suffix X in the SEARCH statement. The following statement searches for the string "We love TPX!":

SEARCH 'E685409396A58540E3D7E75A'X

Note: When you use the X suffix, you must enclose the string in single quotes.
