alpha-number convertion
March 24, 2008 07:07PM
Hi everyone.

I need to convert the alphabet into numbers. A to 1, B to 2, etc.
I cant find a way to do this, can anyone give me some help? Im a C programmer, and in C all its needed its a cast, in here I dont got a clue.

Thanks in advance for some ansewrs!

Hi...

the ASC function will give you the ascii code of the character.. You just then have to substract the appropriate value... I don't have my ascii table handy, but it will be something like:
iValue is int
iChar is string
iChar="A"
iValue=asc(iChar)-xx

Best regards

If you 'lost' the ascii table, or you forgot to memorise it grinning smiley

iStartvalue is int = Asc("A") - 1
.../...
iValue=asc(iChar)-iStartValue

Always think about sollutions, not about problems.
