Re: hexadecimal from byte?

Hi Adam

What you suggests just gives be the number 2 as a string "2". What I
need is the hexadecimal representation of the number 2. For example,
the number 123 is "01111011". In my case each of these "0/1" represent
when a given test has been passed or not. That is the information I
need. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Andrea
