Change Format to hex
Hello experts,
My question that I've been stuck on for a while is how can i add "0x" in front of a number without changing the actual number itself.
In VC++ using namespace System It can be done like so..
But i want to do that exact thing without using the namspace System, and System::String.
and one more thing instead of having the number displayed into "txtNumber->Text" I'd rather have it be put back into "int Number". So each time i use "Number" it'll equal "0x123456".
Thanks for your help.

The number 123456 is Not the same as 0x123456. Try it in your calculator. 0x123456 = 1193046 decimal.

@DaveBaldwin - Yes I'm aware of that, I merely just want to add "0x" infront of any number. or if this makes things easier. Make 1193046 into 0x123456 within "int Number".
