HI krishna,
You can use substring function and extract one character from the string i.e. first character and store it in one character variable and then use ascii function on that character variable, your problem will be solved.....

This is a pretty easy one.

string mystr="Fred ran fast.";
int myASCIIValue = (int)mystr[0];
//myASCIIValue is now 70
