If I lived back in the wild west days, instead of carrying a six-gun in my holster, I'd carry a soldering iron. That way, if some smart-aleck cowboy said something like "Hey, look. He's carrying a soldering iron!" and started laughing, and everybody else started laughing, I could just say, "That's right, it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice." Then everybody would get real quiet and ashamed, because they had made fun of the soldering iron of justice, and I could probably hit them up for a free drink. - Jack Handy

    Hmmm, I don't think so.
    I think you'll have to use,
    LOOKUP temp1, "0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","A","B","C","D","E","F",temp1

    If you mean is it okay to have the same variable 1st and last... Yes that is okay.

    Nick,

    Here's another approach -- the one I tend to use:

    HexVals: 
  DATA "01234567890ABCDEF" 

... 
 

  READ HexVals + temp1, temp1

    Nick,
    Jon's method is more memory effiecent(sp). You can store 2K values for the SX28 and 4K values for the SX48/52.
