converting a array of bytes to CString 1

[ugly]

I want to convert a array of bytes to a string the size of the array can vary but as a example--


CString hold;
byte myArray[3];

myArray[0] = 2;
myArray[1] = 4;
myArray[2] = 8;

i would like hold to be "248"



i would welcome any help on how to do this
thanks martin

ps--also can anyone also explain the difference between data types "byte" and "BYTE"

try this:

CString hold;
byte myArray[3];

myArray[0] = 2;
myArray[1] = 4;
myArray[2] = 8;

CString array0, array1, array2;
array0.Format("%d", myArray[0]);
array1.Format("%d", myArray[1]);
array2.Format("%d", myArray[2]);

hold = array0 + array1 + array2;

, you can also use sprinf, if you don't want to create that many CString objects, the problem is that CString's Format function member doesn't work well with more than one parameter, and you can try also multiply first 2*100, 4*10, etc,

Hope this helps,

Ricardo

P.S. : Byte is an 8 bit-integer, i really don't see any difference between the lowercase and the uppercase ones, probably the uppercase one is to maintain compatibility with the MASM data type

many many thanks Ricardo for your help

How about -

CString hold;
byte myArray[3];

hold=(CString) myArray;
