dear all
please help

i have a code hexadecimal like this

0001040A0C0A03041A436463472D242324262620161214181C242D353E545E5F5D574D423A322519130F0905030202020101

and i get instruction like that "50 sets of 2-digit hexadecimal data, converted to ASCII"

from the convert, i want to show in database mysql image blob.

when i try i get the value is "

CdcG-$#$&& $-5>T^_]WMB:2% "

please help me

What I have tried:

VB
Public Function HexToStr(ByVal Data As String) As String
        Dim com As String = ""
        For x = 0 To Data.Length - 1 Step 2
            com &= ChrW(CInt("&H" & Data.Substring(x, 2)))
        Next
        Return com
    End Function

    

    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim st As String = TextBox1.Text
        Dim com As String
        Dim a As Integer = 0
        Dim b As Integer
        Dim c As String = ""
        ' while loop execution '

        b = TextBox1.Text.Count

        While a < b
            c = TextBox1.Text.Substring(0 + a, 2)
            com = HexToStr(c).ToString
            RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & com
            a = a + 2
        End While
    End Sub

The hex data you've posted starts with a null character, and contains various ASCII control characters. It's clearly not intended to be a string to be shown to a human.

You need to talk to whoever gave you those incomplete instructions to find out precisely what the data represents, and how you're expected to decode and display it.

1 solution

The value you get is the value in your original string converted from hex characters to a string - the code you show works.

But ... it's way too short to be any realistic image, (even as a icon bitmap, it would only be about 3 pixels by 4) so I'd suspect that either it's been mangled or it's very incomplete.

I'd go back to where you got it from, and check carefully what exactly is expected - that isn't human readable data or an image!

i get the hexadecimal from the instrument machine, and the instrument print that hexadecimal to a like histogram. I want to save the histogram picture to the database.

I suspect that what you have is the histogram data points, not an image of the histogram. That would make sense for the size of the data sample.
