Dim x As String = blabla[0]

?!?

That's not valid VB code.

Dim i As byte
I need to read that 0 to my byte i
how can I convert from string to byte???

'System.Text.Encoding.<encoding>.GetBytes'. In addition check out 'Asc',
'AscW', and 'Convert.To*'.

Lamis,

Visual Basic has a very strong methods for that.
What you not ask is
x=Chrw(Cint(i))
What you asks
i(0)=CByte(ASCW(x))
