ADO.NET :: Converting A Binary File To Byte Array?
Oct 29, 2010
I'm retrieving a binary file from the database, a .pdf file that I would like to let the user open and view. From what I can tell, there are two steps to do this:
1. Convert binary file to byte array
2. Convert byte array to file content
Here's what I've got so far:
[Code]....
This isn't working and I'm having a heck of a time trying to find a solution. I'm getting a blue squiggly under c1.docData in the Dim bArray line.
I am develping an application that integrates with an RFID kit. The problem is, the kit comes with an .cs class that accepts data stored in a byte array however, each information stored in the array respresents an int. I wanted to store String information in each array but, my research suggest that a String itself can be converted to a byte array and not a byte....here the code from the .cs class:
how to encrypt a PIN in to 4 byte binary. The MD5 and other hashes I have known give the result as 8 or 16 byte. I need only 4 bytes because it is alloted only varchar(4) in the database.
I am trying to get the following code behind to store a file in a datbase using Linq (with *dbml). I am getting an intellisense error in my "For each" loop the says the following":Value of 'Byte' cannot be converted to 'System.Data.Linq.Binary'I have been searching for awhile, but I can't seem to find a solution that has worked for me yet.
I am using web services to retrieve one record from database. here in this record there is one image field.In web service, the record is converted to xml document and sent to client
when i send this record to client thru webservice , this photo is converted as byte[].
to check before giving to client, i checked my webservice. for that i took a new .aspx page and i retreived my record in to dataset and binded that to gridview. In gridview, I could see my image in byte[] format
I want to change this byte[] to previous image format in my asp.net page.
I am unable to change. I searched in google, I am unable to solve my problem.
My fu.PostedFile shows data in it. Each index of the array has different value in it. But arrFileByte shows all the index have 0 as their value. I've used this very code to upload files in the database before. What might be the resaon it is not working now.
In my aspx page I have a HTML inputfile type which allows user to browse for a spreadsheet.Once the user choses the file to upload I want to read the content of the spreadsheet and store the content into mysql database table. I am using the following code to read the content of the uploaded file and convert it into a datatable in order into insert it into database table.
if (filMyFile.PostedFile != null) { // Get a reference to PostedFile object HttpPostedFile myFile = filMyFile.PostedFile; // Get size of uploaded file int nFileLen = myFile.ContentLength; // make sure the size of the file is > 0 if (nFileLen > 0) { // Allocate a buffer for reading of the file byte[] myData = new byte[nFileLen]; // Read uploaded file from the Stream myFile.InputStream.Read(myData, 0, nFileLen);...................................
I have datatable with records and i have existng Excel file in my application temp folder i want to export datatable records in this excel file workbook and i want to convert this excel workbook into byte array and i want to send this byte array in reponse.write to user to give download excel file option

if we get those images hexadecimal rtf codes we have "0ef1caf...........0d" billions characters like this.I what to convert this hexadecimal explanation to byte array to save images one by one to where i want.
Is there a control that you can use? It can be done by fetching a binaryread from an aspx page but why there isn't a simple free image control that you can put in the page and feed it a byte array?
This is actually a problem with a local report (RDLC) as opposed to an SQL report but this seemed to be the closest forum. I'm simply trying to have my page programatically open my report in PDF format. Ideally the preview wouldn't have to load at all but the way of doing it in pure code without loading a page with a ReportViewer control seems complicated to me, especially as the report has several subforms, all with different datasources (from an SQL server database).
So I'll settle for a page with a ReportViewer control which automatically opens the report in PDF when the page loads. I can't believe how much code is required for this! There are lots of tutorials on the Internet for this and I've tried several but without success. It seems to always fail at the same line, when adding values to the byte array.
My web page contains a file upload control that is used to select excel file. What my code does; is to read the content of that file and store its content to DB. Right now, I save this file to server and read its content using OLEDB.I want to know is there any way i can read the content without saving it on the server?
Every morning we send out an email with a text file attached. This is a manual process so I am automating it.I am using an internal mail web service. Its last two parameters are a byte array which is the file contents and a string which is the file name. I passed (...gbytes, "test.txt") and the only thing wrong with it is text.txt is XML. I want it to be text (csv is fine because there is actually four columns that come from a datatable).So I am assuming what's making it XML is this code:
Code: System.IO.MemoryStream stream = new System.IO.MemoryStream(); System.Runtime.Serialization.IFormatter formatter = new System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter(); formatter.Serialize(stream, ds.Tables[0]); gbytes = stream.GetBuffer();
I am trying to search the Internet for how to convert a datatable to a byte array, but I can't find how to have it be text instead of XML. Also, another parameter our WS takes is a flag to say if it's XML, and I am setting this to false.
