Converting Bytes To Another Format
Jan 20, 2011
I have been looking for a way to convert bytes down into another unit and append the unit format to the end and return it. I have found a few posts about it but I didn't perticularly want to write that much code that they listed, so I designed "my own" (I'm sure I'm not the only one who has done this method).Since I am pretty new at all this, I was wondering if anyone could let me know if there are any problems with how it would process the information and perhaps make it faster.[code]

my goal is to
1.Take an file(exe,dll,etc)
2.Convert it into hex
3.place that hex values in a stack
4.Execute the values inside the stack to its original form(i.e. take the elements out of stack and then convert it to a compile format)
Imports System.IO
Sub Main()
Dim fileName As String = "ABC.exe"

I made a thread about Converting Form Bytes to Text and I got the answer but I wanted to ask if I can do the Opposite (Convert Text To Bytes).

I've got the following simple code to convert Bytes to a Hex string :-
Code:
Shared Function BytesToHex(ByVal bytes() As Byte) As String
If bytes Is Nothing Then Return ""
Dim S As String = BitConverter.ToString(bytes)
[Code].....
The HexToBytes routine obviously can take a lot longer to complete than the BytesToHex routine and is noticeably slower when dealing with a lot of data. As I'm converting a lot of hex strings back to bytes, I wondered if there was a more efficient way of doing it without looping through the whole string as I am doing?

I am tasked with the job of reading the X and Y coordinate of a Text label from a "save file" of a 2D CAD drawing. I found the exact position of the coordinates in the file, but I still don't understand how to read them 100%. They aren't simple ASCII characters.First, I read the file byte by byte, and load them into a textbox seperated by spaces as numbers from 0 to 255. Here is an example X and Y coordinate

Ive 2 buttons and 3 text boxes.Button 1 encrypts the data from textbox1 to bytes, converts it to string and display it in textbox2.Button 2 reads string from textbox2, converts it to bytes and decrypts it displaying it in textbox3 (textbox1 and 3 got to match).The encrypt/decrypt process works fine but the conversion from string to bytes is failing and cannot seem to find the problem. The error states that the string doesnt have the same format (Bytes(i) = Byte.Parse(Values(i))

This has to be incredibly simple, but I must not be looking in the right place.
I'm receiving this string via a FTDI usb connection:
'UUU'
I would like to receive this as a byte array of
[85,85,85]
In Python, this I would convert a string to a byte array like this: [ord(c) for c in 'UUU']
I've looked around, but haven't figured this out. How do I do this in Visual Basic?

I am having trouble converting the Bytes() to a readable text.
I will be receiving packets from a UDP Connection, but due to lack of connectivity issues, they have provided me a .mem file that i am assuming is the whole stream of the packet.
So for now, i am trying to read the file and i get a collection of bytes(). but i cannot convert it to readable text.

I want to take a number such as 600 (0x0258) and send these hex values to a C-based system which is assigning char's to the received bytes and rebuilding to the original number. Currently, I am converting to bytes in VB.Net but it is not giving me the expected outcome (because of the ascii nature of the transfer most likely) [Code] I've also tried using Hex but this doesn't get the data in the correct format.

I'm creating a VB app that uses the Infragistics UltraGrid to display data from 2 JD Edwards files. Before the data is displayed, first I need to convert 2 date fields that are in JD Edwards Julian date format (i.e., 111158 for 6/07/11....the 158th day of this year) to mmddyy format.

I have query that involves a cross-language operation, namely converting 4 SBytes to a signed integer. The source language for this operation is Java, which utilizes the ByteBuffer in order to extract a signed integer from the data stream. The inner workings of ByteBuffer are at best a black box to me, as I haven't been able to find any hints to what actually goes on when Java extracts the integer. [Code]

I am reading and writing binary data through a serial port and must (a) reassemble the incoming four bytes that make up a IEEE single-precision float into an actual float, and (b) disassemble a float into its four constituent bytes before squirting them through the serial port.
I am using VB.NET 2008. In VB6, I could use the LSET command, as in:
Code:
Private Type typByteArray
B(1 To 4) As Byte
End Type
[Code]....
But of course this code won't work in VB.NET. In C it would be easy to handle situations like this by using unions, but VB.NET doesn't support them.

I have a string of bytes which I am reading from a microcontroller via a serial port which is as follows : 02 10 18 14 CB 73 43 D3 14 00 0D 00 09 00 1B 00 04 B8 3C 00 00 24 00 30 AB
I would like to write some code to place each the bytes into an array with each element of the array consisting of one byte each.

I'm doing some homework for my VB class where I have to write a program that creates an invoice for a customer. I'm having an issue with converting the name input from the format of (Last, First) within the same textbox to (First Last) in a listbox via a function.

I'm working on an application that is used by English and French users. French users have their computer's regional settings that make the decimal "," instead of "." and the number spacing " " instead of "," So, a French user will input a value "9,78" in a text box. I need to make this value "9.78" so I can safely store it in a database. How can I convert this to the US number format?

I'm having some trouble converting the format of a date in .NET 2008...
Dim currMonth As Date
currMonth = Format(Now, "mmm")
From this code, I need to extract today's date in the format of "mmm" (so it should return.. "Apr")This worked in vb6 but not in .Net, I keep getting some sort of conversion error.. I looked at using theformatdatetime option but it doesnt have the format that I need... only short date/long date...that kind of thing.

I have a program, that allows writers to save there quotes. The quotes are saved in a xml file. Everything works as it should but when I load a saved quote it still comes up in xml format. I need to load a saved quote in a plain text format and I also want to be able to give the output file print functionality. I was thinking of making the output file a html file which opens up in a web browser, this of course already has print functionality, is this at all possible.

There are not very many good DVD burners out there for free so I was looking at making my own Data DVD buring (so no converting to DVD format just yet). How is this done? I need a starting point, I can do the basic GUI and add files to a listbox or something but the burning part. How does this get done???

I am in process of designing an architecture for an application. Following is the high level requirement.
1. The basic requirement is to convert a flat file into XML
2. The input flat file can have various formats, the delimiters, the data positions may vary.
3. The output XML format is predefined. There is a specification defined in a word format, which I think I need to define it as an XSL or XSD.
I am planning to follow some design pattern. Not decided yet. The architecture should be flexible to extend the input file formats and accommodate any changes in output specification.
