    Formula for converting 32 bit Hexadecimal into decimal in EXCEL
    Formula for converting 32 bit Hexadecimal into decimal in EXCEL.

    I required a formula in the mSEXCEL for cinverting IEEE-754 32bit hexadecimal floating point representation into decimal floating point.

    =HEX2DEC(target cell) is a built in function. Will this do?

    No this formula is not help ful. It can conert only 4 digit hex number only. I required 8 digit hex number to be converted in to decimal. For eg: 4224A012, the number is an 32 bit hex representation. I required the conversion of the number in to decimal floating point.

    In Excel 2007, the hex2dec function will convert an 8 digit number.

    Enter 4224A012 into cell A1, in cell B1 enter the formula =HEX2DEC(A1) and the answer is 1109696530. In cell C1 enter the formula =DEC2HEX(B1) and the answer is 4224A012.

    Is this not what you require?

    The answer for 4224A012 hex in decimal is 41.1. The answer is extracted by using "IEEE-754 Floating-Point Conversion From 32-bit Hexadecimal Representation To Decimal Floating-Point". I required the "IEEE-754 Floating-Point Conversion From 32-bit Hexadecimal Representation To Decimal Floating-Point" in the EXCEL

    This is not built into Excel, but it can be added as a User Defined Function. Here is a family of functions that need to be installed together, one of which that does the job:
    Code:
    Option Explicit
    
    '   shg 2008-0919, 2009-0517 (minor changes)
    
    '   Routine         Input                   Output           WF/VBA

    How to install the User Defined Function:

    1. Open up your workbook
    2. Get into VB Editor (Press Alt+F11)
    3. Insert a new module (Insert > Module)
    4. Copy and Paste in all the code (given above)
    5. Get out of VBA (Press Alt+Q)
    6. Save your sheet

    The function is installed and ready to use.
    =============

    In A1 put: 4224A012
    In B1, try your new function like so: =HEX2SNG(A1)

    Thanks very much. The code is working Mr. Beaucaire.
    Is there any code for converting the ASCII to decimal in EXCEL.

    How to install the User Defined Function:

    1. Open up your workbook
    2. Get into VB Editor (Press Alt+F11)
    3. Insert a new module (Insert > Module)
    4. Copy and Paste in all the code (given above)
    5. Get out of VBA (Press Alt+Q)
    6. Save your sheet

    The function is installed and ready to use.
    =============

    In A1 put: 4224A012
    In B1, try your new function like so: =HEX2SNG(A1)

    With an ASCII string in cell A1, try these formulas:

    ASCII to Decimal:
    =CODE(A1)

    ASCII to Hexadecimal:
    =DEC2HEX(CODE(A1))

    If those don't work for you, post a more complete question with sample data/results.

    JB,

    At the risk of being a complete PITA - I need to take a hex string (eg D0 BF FF FF) and turn it to Little endian (eg FF FF BF D0). I have tried to adapt some of your coding from your really helpful posting above but my VB skills are, frankly, appalling and while I can work out what your script is doing, I am not having any success in adapting it.

    I'm sure this is a relatively simple couple of lines but it is beyond me.

    Thanks, in advance for any help,

    Nigel

    If your text string in A2 is shown exactly like you demonstrated above with spaces between each quad, then use this worksheet formula to reverse the order of the quads:

    =RIGHT(A2,2) & MID(A2,6,4) & MID(A2,4,3) & LEFT(A2,2)

    If your data does not match this exact format, click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to upload a sample worksheet with several examples of your data and your desired results.

    JB,

    Thanks for the really prompt response.

    I knew I would get something wrong - I would like to input the HEX string as a continuous string, it makes the inputting process a whole lot easier, to have to include spaces would build unnecessary effort and room for error into the process.

    So, the actual input will look like [D0BFFFFF] and the output would look similar [FFFFBFD0]. Just to emphasise, both input and output would be in continuous strings.

    I'm sorry to have wasted your time, thanks for the help.

    All the best,

    Nigel

    Hopefully you'll pull these two examples apart and see what's going on so you can use this technique yourself in the future.

    This is for reversing your text string 2 characters at a time with no spaces:

    =RIGHT(A1,2) & MID(A1,5,2) & MID(A1,3,2) & LEFT(A1,2)

    Were you going to post a workbook with the function installed in it and NOT working as expected? Do so, be sure to highlight the cells with the function(s) in use so I don't have to hunt for them.
