How to convert a Byte Array to decimal value and vice versa in c# 4.0 framework.
The following code working in 2.0 and 3.5 , but giving exception in 4.0:--

byte[] bytearray = new bytearray[16];

MemoryStream m2 = new MemoryStream(bytearray);

BinaryReader reader = new BinaryReader(m2);

decimal dec = reader.ReadDecimal();

Console.WriteLine(dec.ToString());

Console.ReadLine();

m2.Close();

reader.Close();

It's working OK for me under both .NET 3.5 and 4.0 though I had to change this line:

byte[] bytearray = new bytearray[16];

to this in order for it to compile:

byte[] bytearray = new byte[16];

What exception are you getting under .NET 4.0?
