The problem is that when I'm trying to save the image on the pc or insert it into sql-db-2 I get an error: can not convert System.Xml.XmlNode[] to System.Byte[]

I need to know how to convert data type System.Xml.XmlNode[] to System.Byte[] .

Answer 1

I dont know what kind of data is there in the Node. But i think somthing similar like this might do:

    var item = xmlnode[0];
    Byte[] byteconverted = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(item.InnerText)
