Note 1:
WORD data format is stored back to front.
E.g. Decimal value 13553
Hexadecimal value 34 F1
Stored as: F1 34
Note 2:
DateTime type is a packed binary format.
It contains YEAR-MONTH-DAY-hour-minute in the following format:
YYYYYYYYYYYY MMMM DDDDD hhhhh mmmmmm
e.g.:
11/27/2005, 13:37 is stored as:
2005 in binary on 12 bits is: 0111 1101 0101
11 in binary on 4 bits is: 1011
27 in binary on 4 bits is: 1 1011
13 in binary on 5 bits is: 0 1101
37 in binary on 6 bits is: 10 0101
Concatenating these we get: 0111 1101 0101 1011 1101 1011 0110 0101
In hexadecimal these become: 7D 5B DB 65, and gets stored back-to-front
