If in doubt, record a macro and inspect the entrails!

Here is an INDEX to all the procedures.

You will probably need one copy of my GLOBAL DECLARATIONS.



Public Function lngHexToLong(ByVal strText As String) As Long
' Procedure :   lngHexToLong
' Description:  Convert a string of hexadecimal digits to a LONG value.
' Copyright:    Chris Greaves Inc.
' Inputs:       STRING of characters in range 0-9 and A-F.
' Returns:      LONG.
' Assumes:      Pairs of valid Hex digits are presented.
' Side Effects: None.
' Tested:       By the calls shown below.
    Dim lngResult As Long
    lngResult = 0
    If Len(strText) Mod 2 <> 0 Then
        strText = "0" & strText
    End If
    Do While Len(strText) > 0
        lngResult = lngResult * 256 + (Val("&H" & Left$(strText, 2)))
        strText = Right$(strText, Len(strText) - 2)
    Loop
    lngHexToLong = lngResult
'Sub TESTlngHexTolong()
'MsgBox lngHexToLong("414243") ' 4,276,803
