I am following a pretty poor tutorial on edditing a database to give desired results.  
It says hibyte in a certain field will give me certain results but I do not understand what it means by hibyte.  
It also mentions lobyte for other fields.

Note: I am using ms access database then importing to mssql because I find mssql horrible to use. Although it shouldnt matter either way.
