Casting in vb.net

M

martin

Hi,

I have blob field in my database.
I am retrieveing the field through a stored procedure and the execute scalar
method.

I would like to cast resulting "byte" field to a string.
I am using the syntax

strDesciption = CType(objCMD.ExecuteScalar(), String)

as I have been reliable informed the C# sytax

string value = (string)command.ExecuteScalar();

works fine.

Have a got this translation wrong?? or is it not possible to do this in
vb.net

anyadvice is appreciated.

cheers

martin.
