If you already have the scalcout record type, you can use the calc
expression
PRINT("%x", a)
where the .A field holds your decimal number.

Hello, Is there any way to convert the DEC value to HEX value in IOC database? I am able to convert HEX to DEC by prepending "0x" before the HEX string and ai record understands it as DEC. But I am unable to convert it back to HEX. I however found another method for DEC to HEX conversion, converting DEC to BIN (mbbiDirect), separating them to nibbles and getting DEC value of the nibble (mbboDirect), then it is converted to HEX char by string fields of mbbi record, and adding the HEX characters together by scalcout. But this is increasing the processing time as many fanout records are involved in between. Please suggest some method. Thanks and regards,
