    you dont convert remainders < 10 to chars in DecToHex()
    use
    Code:
            else
            {
                remainderchar=remainder + '0';
            }

    In addition to the change ZuK suggested you should also change this code:
    Code:
    temp=temp/16;
    remainder=temp%16;
    with the code:
    Code:
    remainder=temp%16;
    temp=temp/16;
    In other words invert the two operations. You first get the current remainder, than update (divide) the number so that in the next cycle you'll get the next remainder.

    No one is here to do the work for you, learn how hex and dec work (and how to inter convert between the two) before going any further.

    If it's a C program, why the cpp extension? Some compilers might attempt to compile your code as C++ based upon the extension, which can cause some problems for you.
