Consider:

int a = Convert.ToChar(textBox3.Text);

The textbox contains a string of elements like abcd. From the above syntax I am not able to convert the entire string of elements and the error is like string must be exactly one character long. Whereas if the textbox is having only one element it is working fine.

So what you are expecting in int variable `a` if the `textBox3.Text` is `abcd` – sujith karivelil Jul 19 '17 at 05:00
@un-lucky. The corresponding ascii values. – Manu kumar Jul 19 '17 at 05:04

@Manukumar but then you need a int array, not a single int (actually, a byte array should be more concise in this case) – Guilherme Jul 19 '17 at 05:05
Then please help me to find the syntax to convert the entire string . – Manu kumar Jul 19 '17 at 05:06
See the duplicate question. It is `byte[] asciiBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(textBox3.Text);` – Guilherme Jul 19 '17 at 05:08
@Guilherme .its not exactly to convert into ascii values. Its like the controller is sending a 4byte character and i want to convert to integer. – Manu kumar Jul 19 '17 at 05:17
@Manukumar please be more clear. Edit your question (or ask a new one) and put some examples of input and the expected output, so we can help you better. – Guilherme Jul 19 '17 at 05:29
