Returns a string from an array of bytes.

Syntax: BytesToString (buffer As Byte(), index As Int32, count As Int32) As String

BytesToString converts each byte in the array to a character based on its ASCII value.

buffer - An array of bytes.

index - The index of the first byte which will be converted.

count - Number of bytes to convert.

Note: buffer will stay unchanged.

Example:

'First add a Bitwise object named bit.

Sub Globals

      Dim buffer(5) as Byte

End Sub

Sub App_Start

      bit.New1

      buffer(0) = 65

      buffer(1) = 66

      buffer(2) = 67

      buffer(3) = 68

      buffer(4) = 69

      msgbox(bit.BytesToString(buffer(), 0, 5)) 'Will display "ABCDE"

End Sub
