Syntax:

@BINARY(<valtype>,<value>)

Description:

The purpose of this function is to allow a binary value to be assigned to a variable.

DialogScript stores all numeric values as strings. This function is intended to be used to store a value in a variable in binary form so it can be passed to a library function which is being called using the @LIB function.

The <valtype> argument may be BYTE, WORD, DWORD or LARGEINT.

•	BYTE creates an 8-bit value, and is effectively the same as @CHR(<value>).

•	WORD creates a 16-bit (2 byte) value.

•	DWORD creates a 32-bit (4 byte) value.

•	LARGEINT creates a 64-bit (8 byte) value.
