Visual boy advance cheats knowlege???

i cant seem to get the cheats to work. theres a whole tutorial on the visualboy website but that stuff is so complicated that its almost impossible to get it working. i did try none the less and nothing changed. then i went over to the gameshark & codebreaker websites to get some codes and still nothing. i dont know what else to do. the game im playing right now is megaman zero 2 and the game is extremly hard to beat. a little boost in power or lives couldnt hurt but apperently tring to aquire them is hurtng like hell...please help!!!

 

Do you know what hex editing is?

CAUTION: BACK UP YOUR GAME,GAMESAVES,AND EMULATOR BEFORE TRYING THE FOLLOWING!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

First of all, you need a hex editor or hex conversion software.

ex. say you have 367 gold in zelda and you want 999, just turn 367 into a hex. open up your cheat maker and set to look for hex, (it should have been built into the visual boy advanced, well at least thats how i remembered it), once you find it, find the hex for 999 and replace it with the 367 hex then save. you might have to restart.

There you go.

 

ok in the "search for cheats" menu in the "signed/unsigned" section there is a hexadecimal option that u can highlight is this what your talking about??? I downloaded Hex workshop ver 4.23 i beleive, but i have no idea how to use it with VBA or were to start working on it. could u give me a quick run through on how to complete this task that u said could be done through VBA???
