Hi All,

I have a listbox displaying all character. When i click on 1 of therecord from the listbox, eg. "a" it will give me the ascci 97. But iencounter problem whereby it will give me ascii as "0" for everycharacter. Can anybody help me? Below is my code

Private Sub List1_Click()
Dim keyascii As Integer

Text1 = List1
Text2 = keyascii

End Sub

I'll not encounter this problem if i assign a value into text1, it willgive me the correct ascii.

Private Sub text1_KeyPress(keyascii As Integer)
Text2 = keyascii
End Sub

Thanks.

Inserting ASCII Character By Code
Hi guys and girls,
At this point I feel quite stupid for putting this on the forum, but I simply can't find a solution.

What I want, is to enter non-alphabet ASCII characters in a cell by code. For example "√" (Alt+251) (which is what I specifically need in this case) can be entered using the keyboard. But when I use the macro recorder on this I get "v" in my code and also in the cell. Another thing I tried was changing the font to something like "Symbol". That indeed changes the "v" to a symbol, so there possibly is a character in that font like "√". But that means that the rest of the cell is also in that font.

Edit: OK, just found out that you can use several fonts in one cell.

In short, how do I enter "√" in a cell without changing the font?

Thanks for any help.

2nd Edit: Why isn't "√" in ASCII according to VBA help?

Dim strText

Private Sub Command1_Click()

SMSOutput = Text1.Text

StrHextoDecimal = CLng(SMSOctetOutput)

ASCII Character
I need to include this character "Σ" in my data report. When I type ALT+228 in a text file, it returns Σ. But when I tried to type it in a VB form or label, it returns the character "S". Then I tried to call the character by typing tis code

Code:
label.caption = CHR(228)
it returbs the character "ä"!!

Im wondering whether there is any setting I need to change. or is there any idea where I can include the character "Σ" in my vb project.

Ascii To Character?
I have a string of html ascii codes pulled from a web page using an inet control. An example would be..

Dim Str As String
Str = Inet1.OpenURL("http://www.example.com")

Which would make a string like this..

Str = "hi" (replace & with & as i cannot because the browser will recognise the code and it will output the actual letter)

I then need to convert these to characters.. so the above example would output 'hi'. I have tried using Chr(Str) but this does not work. Any ideas?

How Do You Figure Out What ASCII Character Something Is?
I have a file that I'm sending through a serial port. I can't modify the file at all. In the file there are several square boxes. I've learned that these are characters such as vbLF or vbCR and such. One of them, the very last one in the file, I've yet to find out what it is.

I've attached the file, could someone either tell me how to find out, or tell me what character it is.... preferrably both. =)

Ascii Character & Tabstrip Control
Does anyone have a tabstrip example to show how to build a tab control in a step-by-step example?
I'm stuffed if i can get these to work.

Also does anyone know why when i put in the ascii character 153 (trademark symbol) all i get is a thick vertical line? as a matter of fact none of the characters between 150 to 159 work.
I can get the copyright symbol (169) and the registered symbol (174) to work ok but not the trademark one.
I'm using them all like this Chr(169)

Can anyone help?

Ascii Character Set Functions In Text Boxes
Help!!

I am trying to edit some text in a text box by using the ascii codes for the editing functions i.e. chr(8) for delete etc, at the moment when i write the following:

textbox.text = textbox.text & chr(8)

instead of deleting the last character a black rectangle appears, which i guess means the the command is being written as its character rather than its function.

How can i get over this problem??

ps i also want to use the controls for tab, shift, shift lock and the other general keyboard function keys.

Removing A Single Ascii Character On A Form
If I use the following code on a form with Courier New or Terminal as it's font, and the form's scalemode set to Character, the second character does not replace the first one, which makes sense. But I want it to. So is there some way of clearing just that 10,10 coor of whatever's there without having to use BitBlt? Or must I use BitBlt? And I can't use Me.Cls

Me.CurrentX = 10
Me.CurrentY = 10
Me.Print "A"
Me.CurrentX = 10
Me.CurrentY = 10
Me.Print " "

Manipulating Individual Character's ASCII Values
I was wondering if there's a command to manipulate the ascii value of specific characters in visual basic. It's a fairly simple process in other more complex languages.

The problem that I have is that I am making a curriculum for a summer camp teaching grade 6-8 students the basics of programming. The project I wanted to do was to write a simple encode/decode program in visual basic that the kids could create a windowed exe file they could execute at home but the best way I know how to encode a basic text message is to manipulate the ascii value. If there's any more project ideas out there or another way to encode that would be welcome as well as letting me know if there is a way to maniuplate character ascii values.

Convert .wav To ASCII
Hi,
I would like to convert a file in wav format into txt format, so to obtain a vector of numbers to create a graphic, with a program, like excel, that is not Matlab.
Exactly I've an algorithm in Visual Basic that analyses a vector of points (graphic) and then gives me in output a series of parameters.
In matlab this is easy, because it recognizes wav files but if I would like to do the same thing in Ms Access, I've to convert before, the wav file in txt file so that my algorithm in Visual Basic can analyse it.
Anyone knows if there exist some algorithm or code that convert wav files in ASCII text files?
Thanks

How To Store && Read The Display Pattern For Each ASCII Character??
Hi out there...
I have something to ask about my programming stuff. Currently i am using visual basic 6.0 to do my programming.

What i want is like that:

Base on an ASCII character, my program will able to find the pattern that represent the character and display it on the dot matrix array.

How am i going to store all the patterns for each of the ASCII character?
Eg. for the character 'A', the equivalent display pattern is [c1,b7,77,b7,c1].
*Note: all display pattern is in hex.

How am i going to retreive the pattern for each ASCII character?
Eg. for the character 'A', the display pattern [c1,b7,77,b7,c1] will be send out to the dot matrix array.

Thanks!!

Convert Char To ASCII
I was wondering if there was a way to check that the first character in a string is a letter vs. a number.
Example: "123M" vs. "M123"
I was thinking of taking the first charcter, changing it to its ASCII value and comparing it with ASCII value of letters vs. numbers to figure it out that way..
Is there some feature in VB 6.0 that i can use to see whether the character is a letter or number? (Zero is included in the numbers.)

Thanks!!

Convert 5 Lines Of Hex To ASCII
OK, I have been reading up on ASCII but still can not get this right.
My app reads from a device on com port that sends 5 lines of ASCII code
Example

Quote:

49 02 01 00 00 00 31
49 02 02 47 36 4B 44
49 02 03 35 34 59 58
49 02 04 32 55 31 33
49 02 05 34 38 33 32

Which I need decoded to

Quote:

1g6kd54yx2u134832

The documentation I have found says this

Quote:

Returns 5 lines, A is line ordering flag, B-E ASCII coded VIN Digits

So I guess the 49 02 of each line is to be ignored?
and the rest needs to be converted?

Convert Characters To Ascii No.
i have an array called chars(). when my program runs, 1 character is stored in each variable of the array eg. chars (0) stores 1 character, chars(1) stores 1 character and so on. i heard that there are 256 ascii characters, is there a simple and fast way to convert each character into its ascii number, say chars(0) had the letter u stored in it and the number of u was 132 then chars(0) would be changed to 132
thanks
