String to Integer Value

I need to check if a character falls within the range of 32 - 127 and 160 -
255. How do I convert a character to the value to make sure it falls within
this acceptable range?

If you have a character you can easily get the Unicode codepoint number:

char c = 'a';
int codePoint = c;

int i = int.Parse(myString);

Sounds like you're looking for the ASCII number of a character, like the old
VB Asc() function...

char strChar = 'A';

int intChar = (int)strChar;

Take a look at Int32.Parse

.... except that values 160-255 aren't within ASCII.

I think he really is after the Unicode value - and the code you gave
does precisely that :)
