Hello,

Do you know if the algorithm for the BINARY_CHECKSUM function in documented
somewhere?
I would like to use it to avoid returning some string fields from the
server.
By returning only the checksum I could lookup the string in a hashtable and
I think this could make the code more efficient on slow connections.

Thanks in advanced and kind regards,

Orly Junior
