View 2 RepliesI am using Microsoft.VisualBasic.Fileio.TextFieldParser to parse a CSV file that was created with Excel 2003. The parser is working great with the exception that it is converting extended ascii values to question marks! So if the file content was:

I have tried all of the encodings in the System.Text.Encoding package with no luck. I thought I had it with UTF7 but it was dropping other characters like replacing the + sign with a space.

I'm working on decoding a NMEA sentence that is a compressed 8-bit string. I'm having a very hard time of wrapping my head around the bit manipulation needed to convert this string. If someone could get me started with this it would be great.

View 6 RepliesSo I have an ASP.Net (vb.net) application. It has a textbox and the user is pasting text from Microsoft Word into it. So things like the long dash (charcode 150) are coming through as input. Other examples would be the smart quotes or accented characters. In my app I'm encoding them in xml and passing that to the database as an xml parameter to a sql stored procedure. It gets inserted in the database just as the user entered it.
The problem is the app that reads this data doesn't like these characters. So I need to translate them into the lower ascii (7bit I think) character set. How do I do that? How do I determine what encoding they are in so I can do something like the following. And would just requesting the ASCII equivalent translate them intelligently or do I have to write some code for that?
Also maybe it might be easier to solve this problem in the web page to begin with. When you copy the selection of characters from Word it puts several formats in the clipboard. The straight text one is the one I want. Is there a way to have the html textbox get that text when the user pastes into it? Do I have to set the encoding of the web page somehow?

View 1 RepliesI have to provide a client with a method to retrieve data from an Audiometer. The equipment is discontinued, but they have six of these and are used every work day. Using port monitoring and the DUMP command on the peripheral I was able to read the data and save to file. Now my challenge is decoding each line. It appears that only a section of the string is not in plain values.I added the pipe separators for clarity. I have determined those columns are: EMPID | DateTime | TechID | Results | ResultType = Test.[code]

I have a call to Server.URLEncode(string) from an old asp file that stores user input into a table. In this case it was a string of Chinese charters.
The actual data is :
%E8%B0%B7%E6%AD%8C%E7%9A%84%E5%89%8D%E6%99%AF%E9%BA%A6%E5%85%8B%E6%96%AF%E9%9F%A6
I rewrote the code to vb.Net and after I get the data from the table, I call
HttpContext.Current.Server.UrlDecode(string) to decode the string, add it existing mark up for an email and send it on its way.
Note that with Visual Studio i can see the HTML markup as it appears in the email, and ALL of the Chinese data is EXACTLY as I would expect it.
When the emial is received i get "???????????" characters where there should be the Chinese characters.
What I do not understand:
What Server.URLEncode actually encodes the data to. It appears to be HEX.
What the array of "?" means in outlook or any other email system that opens it, I assume it means "Hey i cant convert this stuff, so here is a question mark for kicks, good luck."
I am trying to write a function which has the ability to decode a string from utf8. I am getting the string as a response from a webserver.I am using the following line to do the decoding:
DecodeReply += System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(temparray(i).ToString))

View 1 RepliesIs There Any Possible Way To Convert Bytes To Readable text?
View 6 RepliesI 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 came up to create my own because i need to encrypt 10character string and i want it to output also 10character string..security is not my concerned here..what i want is encrypted string is not readable by the user or is not obvious to user.. is this possible by the use of Xor method?..BTW,its better if the output is alphanumeric.
