[vb.net] noob question

how do you assign a value to a short from a buffer.  like in c++ its:

Code Select Expand


shortSomevalue = *(unsigned short*)(buffer+2)

Use the BitConverter class.  I remark about it briefly in this post (in other words, you could have searched).

Information on the BitConverter class can be found at MSDN.
