HEX and BCD coded file READING !!

Dear Friend,

Can some one tell me how to read ... HEX and BCD word from a single file ... what is the best link to find out how to convert the ASCII file to similar thing ....

with best regards
Mehul Doshi

for hex:
you might be able to use a union between a 2 char array and a short int, read in two chars and place them in the array, and the answers in the short int.

in the case of bcd:
read in two chars. multiply the second one by ten and add to the first one.

Read them as a string from a file, then parse them
as whatever you intend to do with them.
