Convert hex string to byte array

If I hav a string representation of a byte eg

6C

How can I write that byte value to a file with WriteByte(6C) or something? I know how to use WriteBytes(byte[]) I just dont know how to do it when there is one byte and origionally it is hex string?

Special Case

I dont want a byte array I want a byte – Special Case Dec 15 '11 at 04:23
a byte can still be in a byte array. It will only have a length of 1. – Dec 15 '11 at 04:24
So, just lift the code and change it for one byte. – MPelletier Dec 15 '11 at 04:24
@YuriyFaktorovich that made me chuckle. thanks – Dec 15 '11 at 04:26
@Joe its actually wrong in this case. The code linked will convert 6C to a byte array of length 1. Its base 10 value is only 108. – Yuriy Faktorovich Dec 15 '11 at 04:36
