    Hi, i would like to know the best way to convert a char (e.g 'c') to its hex string representation (i.e 63) in c++ and save it to a file as such.

      fprintf(fp, "%02X ", 'c');

        Thank you, but is there also a way to do it with ofstream or ostringstream? So many streams are available, so confusing :)

          Naturellement!

          #include <fstream>

          void main()
          {
          std::ofstream os;
          os.open("foo.txt");
          os.unsetf(std::ios_base::dec);
          os.setf(std::ios_base::hex);
          os << (int) 'c' << std::endl;
          os.close();
          }

          :)

            Thanks again, another problem came up though. The character has reinterpret_cast in front of it and then the address of the vector element. The reinterpret_cast should to my opininon put the char in correct format, but it wont come out right :(
