You can just format the text :

                HDC hDC = GetDC(NULL);  
                SetTextColor(hDC, RGB(255, 0, 0));  
                WCHAR wsText[255] = L"";  
                wsprintf(wsText, L"Test ASCII : %c", 169);                      
                TextOut(hDC, 800, 200, wsText, lstrlen(wsText));  
                wsprintf(wsText, L"Test Hexa : %08X", 169);  
                TextOut(hDC, 800, 230, wsText, lstrlen(wsText));  
                ReleaseDC(NULL, hDC);
