I have tried the following to convert an encrypted byte() into a string to
write it to a database:
Dim encoding as new UTF8Encoding()
Dim EncNum as String = encoding.GetString(
encoder.GetString(cypherText) )
CypherText being the string that has just been encrypted which is now in
stored using Byte() I believe
When I run this I get the following error:
BC30311: Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional
array of Byte'.
I dont have any idea what I should try now as I have done nothing like this
before, any help will be much appreciated!
For reference purposes and if anyone wants it the code I used to encrypt my
string is located here:

I have the decryption piece of code on a different page, this seems to be
working but can test it properly as it says the string that I have written
to the dtabase is not the correct length (This was before I tried to convert
it from Byte to string)
