[SNP] Convert Bytes array to String and String to Bytes array [VB.NET]

Firstly:

Imports System.Text

And then add the functions:

   Private Function ConvertBytesToString(ByVal bytes As Byte()) As String
        Return ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetString(bytes)
    End Function
    Private Function ConvertStringToBytes(ByVal str As String) As Byte()
        Return ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(str)
    End Function

You can use it as this:

      'This is how you convert string to bytes array
        Dim Data() As Byte = ConvertStringToBytes("String to be converted")
        'And this is the reverse one
        Dim STR As String = ConvertBytesToString(Data)
