Hello,
I need to send a couple of "NUL"s -> HEX value "00" on a networkstream..
This is the code we currently use to send string:
Dim sendBytes As [Byte]() = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(inputtext.ToString)
networkStream.Write(sendBytes, 0, sendBytes.Length)
Since there is no char value for hex 00 (NUL) it's not possible to use a
string as input..
Thanks,
Sven

Why is there no "char value"? chr(0) returns such a char. Don't use ASCII
encoding because ASCII = 7 bits. Do you want to send the character codes of
the hexadecimal string representation of the chars, or do you want to send
the character codes themselves? What is "inputtext"? What does it contain
for example?
One possible solution:
Dim sendBytes As Byte() 'no [ ] required here
sendBytes = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(inputtext.ToString)
networkStream.Write(sendBytes, 0, sendBytes.Length)
Encoding.Default returns the current ANSI codepage (8-Bit character codes).
The other solution depends on the answers to the questions above.
Maybe you can use a Streamwriter instead. You could pass the encoding once
to the constructor and don't have to convert each string on your own.

?!?
You can use 'ControlChars.NullChar' to get a null character.

art_1.htm
The first line (Dec: 0 / Hex: 00 / Char: / Code: NUL) is the code I have to
send..
I need to send a bigendian HEX value over the networkstream.
So I want to fill the array sendBytes with '00','00','00','3E' for example.
My problem is that the string '0000003E' is converted to hex
'30','30','30','30','30','30','33','45'
And there is no string which translates to hex '00','00','00','3E'

You say the string to be sent is "0000003E"? If yes:
Dim s As String = "0000003E"
Dim b As Byte()
Dim i As Integer
ReDim b(s.Length \ 2 - 1)
For i = 0 To s.Length Step 2
b(i \ 2) = Convert.ToByte(s.Substring(i, 2), 16)
Next
If it is always 8 chars in the source string (representing an Integer):
b = BitConverter.GetBytes(Convert.ToInt32(s, 16)).
