Thankyew.... That is a hairy piece of math there! I appreciate it!

Now when I do this:

Open in online IDE

ascii$=Hex$(250000)
Print ascii$
Print hex2dec(ascii$)
Input
End

Function hex2dec(hexin$)
	Local c, dec, hexval$ = "0123456789ABCDEF"
	For c=1 To Len(hexin$)
	dec = (dec Shl 4) Or (Instr(hexval$, Upper$(Mid$(hexin$, c, 1))) - 1)
	Next
	Return dec
End Function

I don't see it work... Hmmm... Maybe if I renamed the $ variable to match your variable name...

OK itis 2:46AM here and I apologize... it was working GREAT but my brain sin't... manaña amigos
