Thanks Tim, can you tell me which is the most significant part. &nbsp;I read somewhere in the manual that I should transmit the most significant part first

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am wrtting a program that sends data to a spray jet printer via a RS232 port. &nbsp;I have been sending commands with 1 byte hex data and it works fine ie. 1B 02 14 1B 03 &nbsp;(decimal 27 2 20 27 3)<br />
<br />
Now I need to send command data with 2 bytes in hex ie. &nbsp;143 (decimal 323). &nbsp;How do I send this type of hex value? The command allows 2 bytes for this data, I tried 01 43 but this is interpreted incorrectly? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RS232 dec to hex conversion

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
