Let's be honest here.. VB is a great tool for making GUI's, but its ability for backend coding is sometimes lacking in power. So what I like to is write backend functions in C, and export their returns to VB as DLL calls. Passing strings however, tends to be quite complicated. So I wrote a conversion that makes the string into a double that's decoded based on ASCII number values, i.e. 100102103 = abc.

Feedback? Suggestions? easier way to do it?
