Is it possible to convert a hex/ascii string to binary?

ie.
Dim s As String
s = "AA"

output = Hex2Bin(s) '10101010

also is there a bin to hex conversion function?

Re: conversion

Try Convert.ToByte( ), such as:

Dim s As String

s = "AA"

Dim b As Byte

b = Convert.ToByte( s, 16)

Re: conversion

The System.Collecti ons.BitArray class takes an array of bytes in its
constructor and gives you the binary representation.
