<para>
Controls handling of binary column data. ODBC SQL types affected are
<literal>BINARY</literal>, <literal>VARBINARY</literal>, and
<literal>LONGVARBINARY</literal>.
The default mode can be set using the
<link linkend="ini.uodbc.defaultbinmode">uodbc.defaultbinmode</link> &php.ini; directive.
</para>
<para>
When binary SQL data is converted to character C data (<constant>ODBC_BINMODE_CONVERT</constant>), each byte
(8 bits) of source data is represented as two ASCII characters.
These characters are the ASCII character representation of the
number in its hexadecimal form. For example, a binary
<literal>00000001</literal> is converted to
<literal>"01"</literal> and a binary <literal>11111111</literal>
is converted to <literal>"FF"</literal>.
</para>
<para>
While the handling of <literal>BINARY</literal> and <literal>VARBINARY</literal>
columns only depend on the binmode, the handling of <literal>LONGVARBINARY</literal>
columns also depends on the longreadlen as well:

<para>
If <function>odbc_fetch_into</function> is used, passthru means that an
empty string is returned for these columns.
If <function>odbc_result</function> is used, passthru means that the data are
sent directly to the client (i.e. printed).
