  1. Create a decimal serial number like you would do normally. Make sure the "Data Source" dialog is in Advanced mode so that you can also specify a "Share Name" to the data value. In this example I name it: btSerial
  
  2. Create a second object that uses an event based VB Script for the data source. Edit the VB Script and in particular specify the below expression for the OnSerialize event.
  
  value = Hex(Format.NamedSubStrings("btSerialNo").Value)
  
  For BarTender v8.0 you might need to specify the below if the above doesn't work.
  
  value = Hex(btSerialNo)
  
  You should also set the value of the object via the OnAutoSelectedEvent event.
  
  value = Format.NamedSubStrings("btSerialNo").Value
  
  or
  
  value = btSerialNo
  
  3. Note that the Professional edition or above is needed for this solution.
