Hi ShadowDust

Try

Code: Select all

DIM IntegerValue AS INTEGER

IntegerValue = VAL("3423")

PRINT IntegerValue

Example with a string variable:

Code: Select all

Strng$ = "100"

Num = VAL(Strng$)

PRINT Num

;)

Hello!

Can anyone tell me which non-string variable can contain a hex value?

If this cant be done, how do I use a string containing a hex value as an integer?

Example:

Circle (x, y), z, &h(variable containing color hex value)


thanks,

"&h" is only for literal expressions, like &h40, or &h24. Internally, the computer only knows numbers (well, technically, binary). So if you do this:

Code: Select all

x = &h40

It's the exact same as doing this:

x = 64

There's literally no difference. So you can do this:

Code: Select all

c = &h30
Circle (x, y), z, c

HOWEVER, colors are a little simpler if you forgo the HTML convention and use the RGB macro:

Code: Select all

Circle(x, y), z, Rgb(255, 128, 0)
