Regarding Timestamp



Greetings,
This may be very basic but i still would like to ask
this.
I have a table with a timestamp field that gets updated by the DB
engine.

select * from test
go

id timestamp_value
----------- ------------------
1 0x00000000003da03b

(1 row affected)

If i try to bcp out the content of this table into flat files, the
content appears as below

1|00000000003da03b

The "x" from the timestamp value is not getting exported out.

How can i make the entire timestamp value to be exported to flat files
without truncating anything?

Any help would be appreciated.

TIA

.
