Hi spirit1,
Thank u for ur immediate response and your help..
Still,i cudn get out of it..
Convert.ToBase64String() function accepts only string as input..
I need to give image file as input..
This is my code..but not successful..

selectedFile = File1.PostedFile;
binaryImagedata = new byte[selectedFile.ContentLength];
binaryImagedata = Convert.ToBase64String(binaryImagedata); selectedFile.InputStream.Read(binaryImagedata,0,selectedFile.ContentLength);

Any ideas plz..
Thanks for any help

this says you can pass a byte array as input:

i think you need to pass 2 more parameters in.
