Convert a byte Array (Byte[]) to byte

Question

 Hi, i'm trying to convert a Byte[] to byte.

 

this is what i have, but it does not work

 

FileStream fsReport = new FileStream(reportPath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);

Byte[] bytBLOBData = new Byte[fsReport.Length];

fsReport.Read(bytBLOBData, 0, bytBLOBData.Length);

fsReport.Close();

//Convert Byte[] to string

String temp = "";

 

--> I tried encoding with both ASCII and Unicode

//System.Text.ASCIIEncoding enc = new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding();

System.Text.UnicodeEncoding enc = new System.Text.UnicodeEncoding();

temp = enc.GetString(bytBLOBData);

//Convert String ToolBar byte

 

try

{

r.reportfile = Byte.Parse(temp);

}

catch (FormatException ex)

{

MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());

}

 

But then i get the message when attempting to execute the Byte.Parse(temp) : input string is not in the correct format.

 

Can anyone guide me into the right direction
