I don't know if this is what you want but here ya go:

Numfile# = FreeFile
Open "C:\Location" for Input As NumFile#
Input NumFile#, Hex(Text1.Text)
Close NumFile#

That'll save the hex value of Text1

that didn't seem to work.... gave me an error

What i want to do is create a file such as what you get when you look at a file through a hex editor. Is that specific enough?
I just want to create a file like you see with a hex editor thats all and the open/close isn't a problem anymore

Try the following code. It saves the data in test.txt as hex in hexfile.txt

The source file doesn't have to be a textfile, it can be any type of file.

Dim x As String * 1
Open "c:\test.txt" For Binary As #1
Open "c:\hexfile.txt" For Output As #2
While Not EOF(1)
Get #1, , x$
Print #2, Hex$(Asc(x$)),
Wend
Close
