Convert small 64bit signed integer into a high and low byte ?

They will only range from say -300 to +900 so will be saving as two bytes (high and low) as if a 16bit integer, not the incoming MMBasic 64bit. For example - Dim as integer Xmin,Dhi,Dlo Xmin=-298 ... ... I2c write &h50,0,4,1,0,Dhi,Dlo I'm already writing small positive MMBasic 64bit integers as single bytes as MMBasic converts/truncates to 8bit in the i2c command itself. Wondering what the fastest and most efficient way would be to do this ?
