I am very confused with what I am to do with a SQLTimeStamp(stamp is in binary). In my web application, when a user selects a record to update it, a SQLTimeStamp is sent upon retrieval. When I get the SQLTimeStamp from the database, it is returned as an object. That object contains a byte[] array to represent the binary SQLTimeStamp.
What I have to do is convert this object to a byte[] array. How do I do that Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Just to understand your scenario correctly, can you tell me which API you are using to get the SQLTimeStamp object.
Thanks

Hi;
It's 8 bytes so I convert it into a long as follows:
public static long GetTimestamp(IDataRecord reader, int ordinal){
byte[] data = new byte[ 8 ];
reader.GetBytes(ordinal, 0, data, 0, 8);
Int64 rtn = 0;
for (int ind = 0; ind < 8; ind++)
{
rtn <<= 8;
rtn |= data[ind];
}
return rtn;
}
