WHex
Returns the hexadecimal wstring (Unicode) representation of a number
Declare Function WHex Overload ( ByVal number As Byte ) As WString
Declare Function WHex ( ByVal number As Byte, ByVal digits As Integer ) As WString
Declare Function WHex ( ByVal number As Short ) As WString
Declare Function WHex ( ByVal number As Short, ByVal digits As Integer ) As WString
Declare Function WHex ( ByVal number As Integer ) As WString
Declare Function WHex ( ByVal number As Integer, ByVal digits As Integer ) As WString
Declare Function WHex ( ByVal number As LongInt ) As WString
Declare Function WHex ( ByVal number As LongInt, ByVal digits As Integer ) As WString
result = WHex( number [, digits ] )
number
Hexadecimal digits range from 0-9, or A-F.
If you specify digits > 0, the resulting WString will be exactly that length. It will be truncated or padded with zeros on the left, if necessary.
The length of the wstring will not go longer than the maximum number of digits required for the type of expression (8 for an integer, 16 for floating point or longint)
will produce the output:

Description
Hexadecimal digits range from 0-9, or A-F.
If you specify digits > 0, the resulting WString will be exactly that length. It will be truncated or padded with zeros on the left, if necessary.

Example
Print Hex(54321)
Print Hex(54321, 2)
Print Hex(54321, 5)
Print Hex(54321, 2)
Print Hex(54321, 5)
will produce the output:
D431 31 0D431
