Hi.

I need to program a decimal counter beginning from 0 ( EX: 0 , 1 , 2 ... 10000) but my problem is the format of the data because the final saved data its must be like in XXXXh format (example 1= 0001h , 27=001Bh 75=004Bh).

Any ideas how to solve this problem?

thnks

Use printf. It will re-format your binary value into whatever
form you want (or nearly so). Of course, the output is in
ASCII, but I assume that's what you want. You want
to display a binary value as ASCII hexadecimal.
Look in the CCS manual, in the section on printf, and
find the format string that will give you ASCII hex output.
