Convert a string into byte array

[Will8888888]

Could somebody tell me how to convert a string (0 to 255 range) to a byte array?

Use the encoding of your choise and the GetBytes method: messageArray = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("Hello world")

--- b { font-weight: normal; }

Hi, Thank you very much for help. Your code just works for ASCII characters. What about the characters in the range from 0 to 255?? Thank you again, William

That's why I said that you should choose an encoding. Use the encoding that was used to create the string.

--- b { font-weight: normal; }

Dim textConverter As New System.Text.UTF8Encoding Dim bytes() As Byte = textConverter.GetBytes("Text to convert")
