converting string into hexadecimal equivalent value

[herby handcock]

Hi,

Can anyone explain a simple way to take a part of a string and convert it into its hexadecimal value or just assign it to a hex value.

ex.

string = "556677"

When I read this value and store it into the pic in an array, I would like to
take say 55 of the string and convert it into 0x55, or simply say myhexvalue = 0x"55" to give 0x55.

Take a look at strtoul() function.
