I can read a binary field in MS SQL server 2005

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Table_1]([ID] INTEGER NOT NULL, [BIN] [binary](20) NULL);
INSERT INTO table_1 values (1, cast('I am a binary field' as BINARY));
SELECT ID, BIN, CAST(BIN AS VARCHAR(20)) AS BINTEXT FROM TABLE_1;

ID          BIN                                        BINTEXT
