hex in text box, char-arrays to serial

[katmai539]

Hi there, it's me again.

My last post isn't even solved yet but already i'm on a new job, of which i'm not very proud. This time i need to convert the hex codes i put in a textbox as a string like this:

"55 00 01 61 07 46"

and they should come out as a line of bytes, ready to send over a serial port.
Unfortunately i've lost track when i tried to tell VB it's hex codes i put in the textbox.

Can someone please give me a little hint on this, like how to tell vb these are hex chars?

Many thanks in advance,

Katmaï
