It's not clear when you need it.
Sometimes practical jobs, with one click,
You may want to format the text as Aob.
Here's the code, down there.
For this code: @Corroder +1, befitting. Smile

Code:
f = createForm(true)
f.Position = poDesktopCenter
f.Width = 398
f.Height = 130

e1 = createEdit(f)
e1.Height = 23
e1.Left = 7
e1.Top = 49
e1.Width = 384

e2 = createEdit(f)
e2.Height = 23
e2.Left = 7
e2.Top = 84
e2.Width = 384

b1 = createButton(f)
b1.Left = 56
b1.Top = 10
b1.caption = "Format"

b2 = createButton(f)
b2.Left = 223
b2.Top = 10
b2.caption = "Reset"
--===================================--
-- @Corroder Code.. Thanks Dude --
--===================================--

function num2hex(num)
    local hexstr = '0123456789ABCDEF'
    local s = ' ' --The gap between the quote solves the problem
    while num > 0 do
        local mod = math.fmod(num, 16)
        s = string.sub(hexstr, mod+1, mod+1) .. s
        num = math.floor(num / 16)
    end
    if s == '' then s = '0' end
    return s
end

function str2hex(str)
    local hex = ''
    while #str > 0 do
        local hb = num2hex(string.byte(str, 1, 1))
        if #hb < 2 then hb = '1' .. hb end
        hex = hex .. hb
        str = string.sub(str, 2)
    end
    return hex
end;
--===================================--
b1.OnClick = function()
a = e1.Text
b = str2hex(a)
e2.Text=(b)
end

b2.OnClick = function()
e1.Text=""
e2.Text=""
end


Example Text: e_powerup_avatar_speed
Output: 65 5F 70 6F 77 65 72 75 70 5F 61 76 61 74 61 72 5F 73 70 65 65 64

Enjoy it! Smile

You're passing a number to "stringToByteTable", it takes a string and returns a table of bytes that is the string.

https://wiki.cheatengine.org/index.php?title=Lua:stringToByteTable

If you're trying to turn a WORD DWORD or QWORD into a byte table use the corresponding function, i.e. "dwordToByteTable".

Since CEEdit contains is 'Text', of course, your function only accepts number when an input on CEEdit field with convert input text number to real number using tonumber() command.

String '100' will give result number 100 with tonumber('100'), but will give result as nil if you input 'ab100', etc.

But, here as mentioned by @TheyCallMeTim:

Code:
local bt = stringToByteTable('test')
 for i, v in ipairs(bt) do
   print(i - 1, string.format('%02X', v))
 end

result : [[
0  74
1  65
2  73
3  74
]] -- you need format result to '74 65 73 74'


other :

Code:
function num2hex(num)
    local hexstr = '0123456789abcdef'
    local s = ''
    while num > 0 do
        local mod = math.fmod(num, 16)
        s = string.sub(hexstr, mod+1, mod+1) .. s
        num = math.floor(num / 16)
    end
    if s == '' then s = '0' end
    return s
end

function str2hex(str)
    local hex = ''
    while #str > 0 do
        local hb = num2hex(string.byte(str, 1, 1))
        if #hb < 2 then hb = '0' .. hb end
        hex = hex .. hb
        str = string.sub(str, 2)
    end
    return hex
end;

a = '100 Cheat Engine'
b = str2hex(a)
print(b)

-- result : 31303020436865617420456e67696e65 
-- you need format it as output you wish


Btw, I have other version sor string to AOB in lua script.

@TheyCallMeTim, Your link has a very rich code page.
Thanks dude.

@Corroder, Still possible in CE. I think @DarkByte knows the answer. Smile

In the game I'm interested in, there are 65 thousand codes as follows.

String:
Code:
e_powerup_avatar_speed_7d

Aob:
Code:
65 5F 70 6F 77 65 72 75 70 5F 61 76 61 74 61 72 5F 73 70 65 65 64 5F 37 64


Currently, only 43'll format.
Coding at CE every time will be exhausting.
I'll have a little more research. Smile

@Corroder, big thanks dude..
I'm sorry I noticed late.
But the code worked great with intermediate spaces.

code: e_powerup_avatar_speed
AOB output: 65 5F 70 6F 77 65 72 75 70 5F 61 76 61 74 61 72 5F 73 70 65 65 64

Code:
f = createForm(true)
f.Position = poDesktopCenter
f.Width = 398
f.Height = 130

e1 = createEdit(f)
e1.Height = 23
e1.Left = 7
e1.Top = 49
e1.Width = 384

e2 = createEdit(f)
e2.Height = 23
e2.Left = 7
e2.Top = 84
e2.Width = 384

b1 = createButton(f)
b1.Left = 56
b1.Top = 10
b1.caption = "Format"

b2 = createButton(f)
b2.Left = 223
b2.Top = 10
b2.caption = "Reset"
--===================================--
-- @Corroder Code.. Thanks Dude --
--===================================--

function num2hex(num)
    local hexstr = '0123456789ABCDEF'
    local s = ' ' --The gap between the quote solves the problem
    while num > 0 do
        local mod = math.fmod(num, 16)
        s = string.sub(hexstr, mod+1, mod+1) .. s
        num = math.floor(num / 16)
    end
    if s == '' then s = '0' end
    return s
end

function str2hex(str)
    local hex = ''
    while #str > 0 do
        local hb = num2hex(string.byte(str, 1, 1))
        if #hb < 2 then hb = '1' .. hb end
        hex = hex .. hb
        str = string.sub(str, 2)
    end
    return hex
end;
--===================================--
b1.OnClick = function()
a = e1.Text
b = str2hex(a)
e2.Text=(b)
end

b2.OnClick = function()
e1.Text=""
e2.Text=""
end
