<w:rsid w:val="00455AAB" />

<w:rsid w:val="00464813" />

<w:rsid w:val="00996E03" />

</w:rsids>

<w:rsids>

<w:rsidRoot w:val="00464813"/>

<w:rsid w:val="00455AAB" />

<w:rsid w:val="00464813" />

<w:rsid w:val="00473403" />

Description

val (Long Hexadecimal Number Value)

Specifies a number value specified as a four digit hexadecimal number), whose contents of this decimal number are interpreted based on the context of the parent XML element.

[Example: Consider the following value for an attribute of type ST_LongHexNumber: 00BE2C6C.

This value is valid, as it contains four hexadecimal digits, each an encoding of an octet of the actual decimal number value. It may therefore be interpreted as desired in the context of the parent XML element, end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_LongHexNumber simple type (§2.18.57).
