Hi @Eng Ahmed ,
You could try this to general the CSR.

Private Sub SurroundingSub()  
    Dim rsa As Chilkat.Rsa = New Chilkat.Rsa()  
    Dim success As Boolean = rsa.GenerateKey(2048)  
  
    If success <> True Then  
        Console.WriteLine(rsa.LastErrorText)  
        Return  
    End If  
  
    Dim privKey As Chilkat.PrivateKey = rsa.ExportPrivateKeyObj()  
    Dim csr As Chilkat.Csr = New Chilkat.Csr()  
    csr.CommonName = "mysubdomain.mydomain.com"  
    csr.Country = "GB"  
    csr.State = "Yorks"  
    csr.Locality = "York"  
    csr.Company = "Internet Widgits Pty Ltd"  
    csr.CompanyDivision = "IT"  
    csr.EmailAddress = "******@mydomain.com"  
    Dim pemStr As String = csr.GenCsrPem(privKey)  
  
    If csr.LastMethodSuccess <> True Then  
        Console.WriteLine(csr.LastErrorText)  
        Return  
    End If  
  
    privKey.SavePkcs8EncryptedPemFile("password", "qa_output/privKey1.pem")  
    Dim fac As Chilkat.FileAccess = New Chilkat.FileAccess()  
    fac.WriteEntireTextFile("qa_output/csr1.pem", pemStr, "utf-8", False)  
    Console.WriteLine(pemStr)  
End Sub
