LiveCode Forums.

I am trying to read a Dword value from the registry I can get the value out but I an unable to convert it into a readable number.

I am using:

put queryRegistry("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Software\ClientID")
Which outputs in livecode as encoded text how do I convert this back into a integer

put format("%d", 0x7eba)

Only problem is it is returned not as HEX but as a string

Hi,

One trick is to add 0 to your string.
