Another C# question

[taximania]

In my MsgLib code I have this snippet. Below.
Everything I've found on google says it should work.
Every convert type, UTF8, ASCII etc doesn't work.
Basic4ppc throws the error.

Method not found.
GetString
System.Text.Encoding.
Continue?

public string GetMsgBody(int Num)
{
   byte[] b = Convert.FromBase64String(msg[Num].Body);
        string str = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(b);
       return str;
}

I know WinMo 5 and 6 devices handle different message.body 's differently.
ASCII, HTML, MIME etc
But surely there's a way to convert either type to ASCII.
That way I could parse the string using Basic4ppc functions.

I'm surprised that compiles. According to my VS2005 documentation Encoding.GetString Method (Byte[]) is not supported on the Compact Framework.

However the Encoding.GetString Method (Byte[], Int32, Int32) variant is supposed to be supported.

Cheers for that Agraham. Nice pointer Still don't work :sign0148:
Leave it for now it now mate. 'Till I ask another question :sign0137:

Every msg.body has it's own properties. And needs to be converted accordingly. I'll get there. I usually do ;-)
