convert TCHAR[] to BYTE*

Rakesh5

Hi , can anyone guide me how to convert content of type TCHAR[] to BYTE*.... Thanks, Rakesh.

_Superman_

Use the WideCharToMultiByte[^] function.

«_Superman_» I love work. It gives me something to do between weekends.

But its saying like Widechartomultibyte cannot convert 5 parameter from BYTE[128] to LPSTR.. code: WCHAR szstring[256]; length = lstrlen(szstring); BYTE pByte[128]; WideCharToMultiByte(CP_ACP, 0, szstring, -1, pByte, length, NULL, NULL); Can you please guide me where am i going wrong? Thanks, Rakesh.

The expected 5th parameter is char* and you're giving it an unsigned char*. All you need to do is typecast pByte as (LPSTR)pByte.
