Anyone have VB code that will convert Intel Hex to binary?

What is the difference between Intel Hex and ordinary Hex? For future
reference, it is always a good idea to provide examples of what you are
trying to do.

Intel HEX has a line number, then hex data, followed by a checksum of
the data on that line.

Do the example values represent the same data? I see 2 rows of 32 FFs in the
Hex example, but I don't see that type of repeat in the Intel Hex example.
If they do not represent the same data, then they are meaningless as
examples (it would be like saying "How do I convert base 10 numbers to base
12... here is an example of each 23 and 456?"). You don't have to give that
much data, one or two lines would be enough, but they should be of the same
underlying data.

Alright, I did an online search to look up Intel Hex. Assuming the Hex
values' byte ordering is in correct order, this should do what you want...

NormalHex = Format(Mid(IntelHex, 10, 32), _
"@@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@")


If the byte ordering is reversed, then maybe something like this will
work...

NormalHex = Format(Mid(IntelHex, 10, 32), _
"@@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@")
Bytes = Split(NormalHex)
For X = 0 To 15: Bytes(X) = Mid(Bytes(X) & Bytes(X), 2, 2): Next
NormalHex = Join(Bytes)
