Conversion

[QuinnJohns]

Would I have to write my own macro to do conversions? or are there any prebuilt functions to handle conversions, from Texbox entries.

-ascii -> ascii
txtConverTo->Text = txtConvertFrom->Text

-ascii -> hex
txtConverTo->Text = hex(txtConvertFrom->Text)
--- gives
error C2664: 'std::hex': cannot convert parameter 1 from 'System::String __gc *' to 'std::ios_base &' ------ how would I fix it? please?

How do I convert between :

ascii binary hex octal --- respectively...
using Visual C++ .Net?

hex( ..etc ) doesn't work.

I'm using two textboxes :
txtConvertTo and txtConvertFrom ----
Any Ideas?

I don't know if that is what you mean:
1) atoi
2) itoa

Look for Format function in STRING class...

The Managed C++ equal to atoi is Convert::ToInt32( ).

String* str = S"1002";
int number = Convert::ToInt32( str );

And back again.

int number = 1002;
String* str = number.ToString( );
