Examples

The following code sample illustrates the conversion of a Byte to a String, using ToString.

Public Sub ConvertStringByte(ByVal stringVal As String)
   Dim byteVal As Byte = 0

   Try
      byteVal = System.Convert.ToByte(stringVal)
      outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("{0} as a byte is: {1}", _
                                stringVal, byteVal) & vbCrLf
   Catch exception As System.OverflowException
      outputBlock.Text &= String.Format( _
          "Overflow in string-to-byte conversion.") & vbCrLf
   Catch exception As System.FormatException
      outputBlock.Text &= String.Format( _
          "The String is not formatted as a Byte.") & vbCrLf
   Catch exception As System.ArgumentException
      outputBlock.Text &= "The String is null." & vbCrLf
   End Try

   'The conversion from byte to string is always valid.
   stringVal = System.Convert.ToString(byteVal)
   outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("{0} as a string is {1}", _
                             byteVal, stringVal) & vbCrLf
End Sub
public void ConvertStringByte(string stringVal)
{
   byte byteVal = 0;

   try
   {
      byteVal = System.Convert.ToByte(stringVal);
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} as a byte is: {1}",
         stringVal, byteVal) + "\n";
   }
   catch (System.OverflowException)
   {
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format(
         "Conversion from string to byte overflowed.") + "\n";
   }
   catch (System.FormatException)
   {
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format(
         "The string is not formatted as a byte.") + "\n";
   }
   catch (System.ArgumentNullException)
   {
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format(
         "The string is null.") + "\n";
   }

   //The conversion from byte to string is always valid.
   stringVal = System.Convert.ToString(byteVal);
   outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} as a string is {1}",
      byteVal, stringVal) + "\n";
}
