It really doesn't matter what you pass - you are actually passing a pointer - declare your prototype nicely and you'll be fine.

It really is *hex*. As soon as I clicked send, I realized I put the wrong

Just realized that the approaches suggested so far will not work if
the string Michael has _is_ a hex string in character form. His

What he may need is the cvthc/cvtch APIs - see
