No need to convert.  Here's the easy way.

>From the Netview GUI, select Options->Event Configuration->Trap Customization:
SNMP...

When the Event Configuration panel appears, select the Enterprise OID that
correponds to where you want to add the traps, then select "Add".
When the Add Event panel appears, type in the "event name".

Now is the crucial and easy step.  For "Specific Trap Number", enter the hex
number preceded by "0x" , i.e. 'zero' 'x'.  NetView will automatically convert
the hex to it its number scheme.

Incidentally, when adding multiple traps under the same OID, after adding the
first trap, highlight it and select copy, then change the event name and
specific number and anything else.  This may save you much keyboarding.
