Hi Richard, I just posted you a message about Binary to Hex conversion. It included a chart but the message was held because it is too long so if you want it then ask the moderator.
The point is your code ability is great and the text searching ln LiveCode is excellent. To write code that converts Binary to Hex all you do is get a chart with a completer character set. When your code sees the binary 00100101 it finds that in the chart and returns the 2 character Hex value in the chart for that binary number. I think you will have to agree after you wrote that code it will take you more code to add the extra characters and then you will also have to make sure it is not on the same line. It was not a issue of returns because I would get only the 8 chars on each line. We all know mistakes come from many different reasons but it is not due to the type of text or the conversion process or it will work wrong every time.
