*   Function name : CHAR2BCD2
*   Returns :       Binary coded decimal value of the input (2 digits)
*   Parameters :    Value between (0-99) to be encoded into BCD 
*   Purpose :       Convert a character into a BCD encoded character.
*                   The input must be in the range 0 to 99.
*                   The result is byte where the high and low nibbles
*                   contain the tens and ones of the input.
