Converting from string to a binary array

[Arlyn]

I was wondering how I would convert String data into a binary. I want to
store and the binary data in a mssql table. When I retrieve the binary data
I want to convert it from a binary array to a string. Any help would
greatly be appreciated.

'System.Text.Encoding.<encoding name>.{GetString, GetBytes}'.
