VB.NET has a function, Asc(), that gets the Ascii value of a character. I am
attempting to find an equivelant function for C#. Can somebody help me here?

(int)c

Arne

PS: I believe Asc is a VB6'ism.

Asc() can still be used VB.Net. It was in VB3-VB6 and QuickBasic too.

But it's not equivalent to Arne's solution as it returns windows default
encoding character code (not Unicode value)

What does that have to do with anything? It's not a VB6'ism is all that was
being pointed out here and nothing else.

I probably misunderstood as english is not my native language. I just
wanted Nathan to know he can get some different results with (int)c that
he used to get with Asc.
I am sorry to disturb.

'"I believe Asc is a VB6'ism"

It would have been if you needed to set a reference to the
Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility namespace
(Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatiblity.dll)
please note that if you do not need to set this reference you are working
with the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace wich is for current Visual Basic
..NET programs , it is a mamanged library that is part of the framework just
as system.data for instance, It is even possible to set a reference to the
VB namespace in C# and thus use all the VB shortcut methods in C#
