I have to set a value in the registry and it has to be in a unicode binary format. This is to change the default signature of Outlook.I have a signature called : TacoWhen I change my default signature in Outlook itself to Taco. It will be stored in the registry like this:54 00 61 00 63 00 6f 00 00 00However, when I change the value of this key programmatically like this:
I have a byte array that I convert into a string like so Dim byt As Byte() = New Byte(255) {} s = New String(Encoding.ASCII.GetChars(byte))My question is when I look at the string in a debuger its clearly a normal string but when I compare it to what I know its supposed to be it doesnt equal. So i did a quick check and for some reason its return a string thats the length of 256 characters. So i did a s.trim and it still is 256 characters long.
I have an activex control that outputs a template object to the client, which gets serialized to a byte array. My attempts to put this byte array in a hidden field for post back to the server have given mixed reults, in that the size of the byte array decreases when sent to the server. My best guess is that the byte array is being truncated when put into a (string) hidden field.
I convert the byte array to a HEX string on the client side before passing over to the server, then converting it back on the server - HEX to byte array. If found some examples of how to do this in C#, VB.net but I haven't a clue how to accomplish this on the client - vbscript, javascript, etc,
I'm guessing something like this would get it done on the server, but how would I accomplish this on the client side?
Private Function Bytes_To_String2(ByVal bytes_Input As Byte()) As String Dim strTemp As New StringBuilder(bytes_Input.Length * 2) For Each b As Byte In bytes_Input
When I use Return Convert.ToBase64String(ms.ToArray()), I can decrypt data by first Convert.FromBase64String(stringToDecrypt) and it works fine.
But if I dont use Base64string method when returning the data and use .Encoding.ASCII.GetString(ms.ToArray) and then try to decrypt, I get "Bad data" error
I'm trying to figure out how to convert a string inot a byte array to send as a packet over a socket. Initially it was used for serialport.write but I would like to use in Socket.BeginSend(ByVal buffer() As Byte buildpacket() Below is taking a struct (listed at bottom) as an argument and building a string using eg. Chr().
How can I convert the output of buildpacket(), eg. "yyyypyu" into a Byte(). Public Function buildpacket(ByVal packet As PacketRecord) As String Dim temppacket As String Dim checksum, i As Integer 'Build packet to Transmit temppacket = Chr(255) & Chr(255) & Chr(255) & Chr(255) & Chr(254) [Code] .....
I have an array defined As string and the value stored in site is like "7E", "A1" and so on. But in order to send out this array through serial port. I need to change the the array to As Byte instead of using As String. How can I convert it?
I have a word document data been inserted into database as VarBinary(max) column. Now, i need to fetch this information and display in my aspx page directly.I am getting this value from database in Byte Array and try to convert that into string and add that string to a div.I am using the below two ways: In both the ways first i am getting them to a temp txt(in 1st way) and doc (in 2nd way) files and reading back those file I am using .net 2.0 frame work
Write Method:Writing data to temp file(either doc or txt based on the filepath which has filename) Eg: filepath: "c:temp.doc" Public Sub writeFileData(ByVal strFilePath As String, ByVal bytFileData() As Byte) Try
[code]....
Failure reasons: I am getting the output as some symbols, prob because the server is not able to read the format of the word content.how to read the word document data in binary data to a string.
I am trying to convert each line in a file into a byte array. The line in the file is similar to this: :100000000247A1E59620E7FBE4F596900780E0FF24
I have code and have tried several things but they don't seem to be working out. Dim fileline As String = "" Dim linebytes() As Byte = Nothing Dim idx As Integer ' Make sure the file is open for transferring the data to the board. If Not (SoftwareUpdateFilestream Is Nothing) Then [Code] .....
At me soon the roof will go, I can not solve one problem.The problem consists in the following, I accept sms through components devshock, in unicode a format.The message text comes back in an array from bytes in a following kind, we will tell: byte: (4, 18).Though if to translate unicode the text in VB.NET as follows:
Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(<text>) the array of such kind comes back: byte (18, 4), i.e. on the contrary.And so all text.How it is possible to transform the given file to a normal, convertible kind?
How to correctly convert string containing upper ASCII characters to byte array besides looping through each character and filling the array using AscW(chr)?I know I can do something like:
Code: Dim bSourceData As Byte() = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.GetBytes(sourcedata)
But this only works for lower ascii characters (0-127).Instead of ASCIIEncoding I can specify encoding myself (System.Text.Encoding.Getencoding(encoding).GetBytes(sourcedata)). But I have to specify correct encoding in this case, otherwise most of special characters are converted to "?". What should I do if I don't know the encoding?
I'm trying to read the binary data from a binary file with the code below but the it's return the value in the byte array. How can i read the binary data from the binary file and then convert the data into string?This is how i create the binary file.

I've inherited a tested function that processes incoming data from a .NET Serial Port. (Dim RXBuffer as string = serialport1.ReadExisting) I've written a different part of the application that processes a byte array as received from an asynchronous .NET socket.
Is there a way I can convert the byte array into a string as if it arrived from the serial port?
I would prefer to rewrite a very long 'if statement' into byte array functions syntax that look like:
dim b as boolean = IsBitSet(state_buffer(i), j) 'rather than:
dim b as boolean = (Asc(Mid(RXPacket.Pdu, CInt((i - (i Mod 8)) / 8) + 1, 1)) And CInt(2 ^ (i Mod 8))) > 0
I am trying to Convert a data field stored as IMAGE ( SQL Server 2000) using Java to a byte array using VB.NET Java uses signed numbers for a Byte array where as VB dosent. Can somone point me to how I can covert java byte array to VB byte array?
The following image or RTF file illustrates how I'm trying to transform an input Byte array into an output array of Booleans. This is basically what I have listed below. figure out how to get from one array to the next while shifting values of bytes within 8 byte groupings to shift low order to high order or vica versa. What I mean by that is best seen by looking at the illustration of actual input an required output. The reason for this is that the hardware devices have registers and the display which can be seen in the links above needs to convey the disabled sensor cable cell locations.
Ok, I am tasked with changing certain text labels that exist within 1000's of CAD files. The only way to change the text labels, as of now, is to open each CAD file in a CAD editor, change the labels by hand, and save it as a new file name, and that will take forever.So, I want to make this job easier and to do that I need to write a program to do it automatically (not a Macro). So far, I have made an app that loads the CAD file's bytes, finds the position of the label's text bytes, and replaces the text bytes with my own bytes, and saves the file under a new name.The problem is, I don't know the format/encoding/whatever they used to write the string to bytes..... The good thing is, I have unlimited examples to learn from because I can use the CAD program to change the text and then see the results in Hex. I want MY program to mimic the results.Here is some hex examples;
13 BE FD F9 00 = wood 0F 1E 1E 80 = cat 0F 26 FC E0 = dog
I have a very simple question about converting a byte array into 16bit integers. I am connected to a device through a serial port. It sent me six bytes which represent three Int16 integers. For example, the byte array is called newRecievedData(5) and has a length of 6.
The manual that came with the device claims that the int Format is 8 bit MSB|8 bit LSB. Does that mean the following?
newRecievedData(0) contains 8 high bits of the first Int16 newRecievedData(1) contains 8 low bits of the first Int16 newRecievedData(2) contains 8 high bits of the second Int16

but VB.NET Express 2008 gives me the error that Error 1 Value of type '1-dimensional array of Byte' cannot be converted to 'Short'.
in my project I use an Excel workbook as template. Right now, this workbook is located in the same directory as the exe-assembly and can be opened and manipulated by the user. To avoid this, I thought about adding the workbook to a ressource. That works. Problem: how can I convert the resulting byte-array/stream back to a workbook-object?I tried like this, but - obviously - the conversion fails:
Public Shared Sub test() Dim wkb As Excel.Workbook Dim bytes As Byte() = My.Resources.Template_1
