Robert-- You;ll most likely need to call a separate function. Try this one: Function Bin2Dec(sBinaryIn as String) As Long Dim hWork As Long Dim iLoop As Integer For iLoop =3D 1 To Len(sBinaryIn) hWork =3D hWork + (Mid(sBinaryIn, Len(sBinaryIn) - iLoop + 1, 1) * (2 ^ (iLoop - 1))) Next iLoop Bin2Dec =3D hWork End Function --Jim -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On = Behalf Of Robert Carneal Sent: Wednesday, July 28, 2004 1:35 PM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] Convert ones & zeros to binary, and get decimal?
