How to convert a char[] of integers to a string.

[Steve Kershaw]

I can convert from a string to a char array (char[]) by using
string.ToCharArray() function. Now how do I convert it back?

The string looks like this: "000457". I've converted it to a char
array: char[] = {0, 0, 0, 4, 5, 7}. Now I need to convert it back to a
string.

Thanks in advance for your help.

It's so simply you're going to want to kick yourself, it's also so simple
that it's going to get overlooked.

string mystring = new string(charArray);

if you look at the overloaded constructor for the string class, you'll
notice that one of the parameters is a char array. This "should" work just
fine though I haven't toyed with it in a long time.
