Display a byte as two hex digits

[Killer42]

Using Hex$() you can easily convert a byte (or larger value) to a hex representation. However, it comes out as one or two bytes, which can mess up your text alignment. This simple function provides a consistent two-digit hex string.

Public Function HexByte2Char(ByVal Value As Byte) As String
  ' Return a byte value as a two-digit hex string.
  HexByte2Char = IIf(Value < &H10, "0", "") & Hex$(Value)
End Function

How do you convert hex2byte?

Can you explain what you mean? If you just want to convert a hex string to a byte value, try something like Val("&h" & <your-value>).



In future, please don't ask questions here in the Articles area. They should go in the main forum.
