Converting String to Byte array

I need to convert a String to a Byte array and vice versa. Can someone nudge
me in the right direction please?

Look at the System.Text.Encoding classes, for example AsciiEncoding,
UTF8Encoding, etc.

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/unicode.html

Basically, you need Encoding.GetBytes and Encoding.GetString.
