excel vba test if specific bits set in 64-bit longlong integer code example

Example 1: vba long integer value to bits

Function LongToBits$(ByVal n&)
    Dim i&
    LongToBits = "00000000000000000000000000000000"
    If n And &H80000000 Then
        Mid$(LongToBits, 1, 1) = "1"
        n = n And Not &H80000000
    End If
    For i = 32 To 2 Step -1
        If n And 1 Then Mid$(LongToBits, i, 1) = "1"
        n = n \ 2
    Next
End Function

Example 2: vba test if particular bits set in longlong integer

'Fast VBA function to test if specific bits are set 
'within a 64-bit LongLong integer. If ALL specified bits are set then 
'this function returns True. If ANY of the specified bits are
'not set then this function returns False.

'Bits are numbered from 0 to 63, so the first (least significant) bit
'is bit 0.

'Note: bits can be specified in any order.
'Note: any number of bits can be specified in one call.
'Note: the LongLong data type is only available in 64-bit VBA.
