Question

I have a binary file that contains xmldata in bytes 2-43.
How would I go about extracting that data to a file?

I am able to extract small integer fields doing something like this:

Row.TenderNumber = BitConverter.ToInt16(Row.RawBytesraw, 44);

However, I don’t know how to extract xml data from this file.
Any help is appreciated.

Something like this ought to work

    using (var stream = new MemoryStream(<byte[] here>))
    using (var reader = new StreamReader(stream))
    {
        var buffer = new char[41];
        stream.Seek(<offset where string begins>, SeekOrigin.Begin);
        reader.Read(buffer, 0, 41);
        <mystringVariable> = new string(buffer);
    }

I wrote it in C# but you get the idea.
