Thanks (with a sheepish look on my face). I see now that it is 0x11, not 11
decimal.

Subject: passing binary data from VB to C++

I am trying to pass binary data into my Server written in C++ from a VB
client. When I create the data in VB, I declare an array of byte as
Dim MyArr(2) as Byte

However, when I test the variant type in C++, it informs me that it is
8209
which as far as I can tell is a variant array of Bools. What is going on
!?
What is VB doing? Or what am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Aaron
