I'm working on ECG emulation proj. I'm reading the data from serial port and storing it in an array. now I want to store that binary data in ".Dat" and ".obj" file format. Any help or idea would be appreciated.

For i = 1 To Station1.mCOMPort.BytesToRead
ReadArray(i) = Convert.ToChar(Station1.mCOMPort.ReadChar)
Next i

Hi follow the below steps to store binary data in .DAT / .OBJ file

1. Create .dat file or .obj file using FileStream

FileStream myFile = File.Create(@"C:\myFile.dat);

2. Create BinrayWriter Object to write binray data to .dat / .obj

BinaryWriter binaryfile = new BinaryWriter(myFile);

3. Convery Array into Object
4. Write the ArrayContent to file

binaryfile.Write(arrayobject);

Dont forget to close the files

Hi
As you asked sample for converting array to objects, pls find the below the code

string[] Names = {"Rajesh","Praveen","Kiran","Arun" };
Object _obj;
foreach (String strnames in Names)
           {
               _obj = strnames.ToString();
               MessageBox.Show(_obj.ToString());
           }
