I'm trying to convert a C-string with a hexadecimal value into a DWORD. here's my code:

char str[32];
str="0xFFFFFF";
DWORD hex=atoi(str);

When I run this, the atoi function only takes the 0 at the beginning of the string and not the xFFFFFF. Is there a function that can convert from a string to a hex value?

Have you ever used the sscanf function?
