Hex Function

Returns as a String the hexadecimal version of the number passed.

Syntax
result = Hex( value )

Parameters
value | Integer | The number to be converted to hexadecimal.

Return Value
Result | String | Value converted to hexadecimal.

# Notes

If the value is not a whole number, the decimal value will be truncated.

You can specify binary, hex, or octal numbers by preceding the number with the & symbol and the letter that indicates the number base. The letter b indicates binary, h indicates hex, and o indicates octal.

VB Compatibility Note: VB rounds the value to the nearest whole number so the Hex function will probably be changed in a future release to do this as well.

# Examples

Below are examples of various numbers converted to hex:

Dim hexVersion As String
hexVersion=Hex(5) //returns "5"
hexVersion=Hex(75) //returns "4B"
hexVersion=Hex(256) //returns "100"
