String Conversion

[bethr]

I have a two bytes string (data array)

data[0]=9
data[1]=8

how can I get from this string array the number in to a variable ?

data_var = 89

???

[mackrackit]

T = data[1] 'Tens
O = data[0] 'Ones
data_var = (T*10)+O

Maybe??

Pretty simple, just convert to number the ascii content

T = data[1]  - 48 'Tens
O = data[0]  - 48    'Ones
data_var = (T*10)+O

and it work for me, Thanks mackrackit.

T = data[1] 'Tens
O = data[0] 'Ones
data_var = (T*10)+O

Hi Dave,
doesn't this work ?
data[0] = "T"
data[1] = "O"
or did I miss the point (again) entirely? OK, yes I did! I thought he wanted to store ascii characters in the array.
