hex to int

[wessamzeidan]

How can I convert a hexdecimal number to an integer???

Not sure what you mean - do you mean a string formatted as hex that needs to be converted?

If so look at the Integer.Parse(...) method - you can specify different numerical styles for the string including Hex.

If that isn't what you meant then reply and I'll have another go.

Yes, this is what I meant, can you please give an en example....

Something like the following

Dim i As Integer 
Dim s As String = "7F"    'Not sure about the formatting you may need to try 0x7f or &H7f

i = Integer.Parse(s, NumberStyles.HexNumber)
MessageBox.Show(i.ToString())

Was searching for this and ended up here.

Thanks PlausiblyDamp.

It worked. 0x7f or &H7f wont be accepted in the string for conversion - run-time error.

 

BTW it seems it has to be Globalization.NumberStyles.HexNumber and not just NumberStyles.HexNumber in your code above.
