One way is to start with the four components in A1, B1, C1, and D1. (If
they're in one cell, they can be split using "Data >> Text to columns.)

Then, in E1, put
=DEC2HEX(A1,2)&DEC2HEX(B1,2)&DEC2HEX(C1,2)&DEC2HEX(D1,2)

(I'd also add some checks that the IP is valid.)

Here is a UDF (user defined function) that should work.

To enter this, <alt><F11> opens the VB Editor.
Ensure your project is highlighted in the Project Explorer window, then
Insert/Module.

Paste the code below into the window that opens.

To use this, you can enter a formula of the form

=IP2HEX(A1) where A1 contains your IP address in standard format (i.e.
something between 0.0.0.0 and 255.255.255.255)

=====================================
Function IP2Hex(IPadr As String) As String
Dim IP
Dim j As Integer

IP = Split(IPadr, ".")

For j = 0 To 3
IP2Hex = IP2Hex & Right("0" & Hex(IP(j)), 2)
Next j

End Function
========================================
