Binary Data Type

When Binary is selected as the data type, BarTender converts the selected data source to a binary string of 1's and 0's. If the data source is a database field, the input can be translated based on the translation method chosen in the Convert To Binary dialog. The binary data type is available for binary large object (BLOB) database fields, object values, external files, and embedded data.
