Which Flag Is Set (ie 1, 2, 4,16,32,64,...)

[Anonymous]

I'm working with some code that deals with the layer states and the optional flag to determine which props to save.

Initially, I was going to store the sum of the flags using savesettings, until i realized I don't know how to "parse" the total into the individual flags. Could someone give a hint or a little code?

Edit: I need to figure out which flags are set so that i can mark the appropriate check box (just like the options for the native layer states)

Here are the codes I'm working with

acLsNone 0
acLsOn 1
acLsFrozen 2
acLsLocked 4
acLsPlot 8
acLsNewViewport 16
acLsColor 32
acLsLineType 64
acLsLineWeight 128
acLsPlotStyle 256
acLsAll 65535


TIA!

If RetrievedValue And acLsFrozen Then
'acLsFrozen bit is set
End If

If RetrievedValue And acLsColor Then
'acLsColor bit is set
End If

Hi Oberer This function returns the bitwise AND: [code] Public Function MeBitwAnd(FstVal As Integer, NxtVal As Integer) As Boolean MeBitwAnd = (((FstVal And NxtVal) = NxtVal) Or (FstVal = 0)) End Function [/code] Samples: ?MeBitwAnd(9, 8) True ?MeBitwAnd(9, 2) False Cheers -- Juerg Menzi MENZI ENGINEERING GmbH, Switzerland http://www.menziengineering.ch

I obviously didn't realize it was that simple 🙂

thanks!
