Has anyone ever tried to write a routine that converts a hexadecimal string
you are reading to a character representation?

Can you post a sample?

I know there is something in here that represents F7.
I am trying to figure out how and where the F7 was sent.

Sure sorry........

Scorpion,
Define "character" as in your other post you mention F7, do you mean
keyboard character F7 or the byte F7 as a ANSI or Unicode code point?


You can use System.Convert.ToByte, ToInt16, ToInt32, & ToInt64 to convert a
string into a Byte, Short, Integer, or Long. You may need a loop to convert
grouping of characters into individual Bytes, Shorts, Integers, and Longs...

Then using the System.Text.Encoding you can convert the above Byte (or array
of Bytes) into a string...

Hope this helps
Jay
