How to Convert ASCII to Hex?

[ Merged ]

Here's my code and the result, as much as I know, is in ASCII:

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_Load()

With MSComm1
.CommPort = 1
If .PortOpen = False Then
.PortOpen = True
End If
.DTREnable = True
.InputLen = 1
.RThreshold = 1
.Settings = "9600,n,8,1"
End With

End Sub

Private Sub MSComm1_OnComm()
Dim inbuffer() As Byte 'Declare an array of bytes
Dim i As Long
Select Case Me.MSComm1.CommEvent
Case comEvReceive
ReDim inbuffer(Me.MSComm1.InBufferCount) 'Specify the size of the array. InBuffercount gives the number of characters in the InputBuffer

inbuffer = Me.MSComm1.Input 'Read the InputBuffer

For i = 0 To UBound(inbuffer) 'Ubound(inbuffer) gives the upper bound of the array, which is equal to the number of characters in the InputBuffer

Me.Text1.Text = Me.Text1.Text & Chr$(inbuffer(i)) 'TxtReceive is a text box

Next i
End Select
End Sub

I need the data to be in Hex so please lend a hand. Thanks.

inBuffer contains the data. what's the problem? You don't need to convert anything to text

Actually the title is wrong. I need to convert it to hex (or decimal, etc) because the result is in ASCII. If I use the data I receive (which is in ASCII), I simply can't use it to make a command because it seems that VB6 can't comprehend the characters. Here's what I get and what I need to convert:

AlÿÃ`
ZûB

So at least, in any number system excpet that. Thanks!

Look up the Hex function

Try Hex$(YourData)

To be more prcise:

Code:

---

Me.Text1.Text = Me.Text1.Text & Hex$(inbuffer(i))

---

But I have an idea, this is not quite what you wanted...
