A PL/SQL datatypes conversion question

> Dear list !
>
> There is a column of datatype RAW in a table.
> it contains 4 numbers (4 bytes each) and a string of 54 bytes , that are
> concatenated and then converted to RAW by an external C++ application.
> I need to convert it back in a PL/SQL trigger.
> I.e. i need retrieve that RAW column , and divide it according to the
> offset to the 4 numbers and the string.
> The problem is that i haven't found any cast_to_number or hextonumber
> conversion functions .
> UTL_RAW only has got CAST_TO_VARCHAR2 function , and there is also the
> standard RAWTOHEX conversion function.
> How can i sort it out , please ?
>
> Thanks a lot in advance ,
