DIESEL Function - Hex2Dec

[Anonymous]

I use AuoCAD LT 2015. I annotate equipment placed on DWGS with a 3-string hexadecimal number. I need to perform calculations on those numbers but in decimal format. So my question is - can anyone formulate a DIESEL function to tranform a 3-string hexadecimal number to its corresponding integer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You might be able to parse the string and convert it with a series of complicated DIESEL expressions - like:

$(substr,MYHEX,1,1)

$(i>,X1,9)

$(*,X1,16)

but it is too complicated for DIESEL - you can make it much easier with LISP (in full AutoCAD).
