James,
That will normally just require a small formula to do. Most likely the manufacturer of the sensor will have that somewhere on their site. I.e. given a voltage level via the ADC a number would be converted to a specific temp value. Once you found the formula you can probably use one of the programming modules (VBScript, Python or CScript) to convert that value. A quick search for that using google will probably get you the formula that you need.
If you have problem programming that formula, post it here.
STeven.
