Can you take a string (or text) in Unicode (4 bytes each character), and by using its string (or text), as input it to a Function Module, or Method, have the string's hex values converted into the old non-unicode value (2 bytes each character) to send to an external system?
I wish it were this easy, but am finding out it is not. Seems like whenever I run a process to convert a field (4 bytes) in the new unicode system, to old non-unicode (2 bytes each), and move it back into a field in the unicode system, it automatically converts it back to 4 bytes automatically?
It is causing issues on the external tergat system that is not using unicode.
Thank-You.

Not that I know of. But you could convert your text to RAW or XSTRING, and send that value to the external system.
