I think you should be using a FileStream and not a MemoryStream for this job...

adding some more information to above code. C# Code MemoryStream mem= new MemoryStream(); ASCIIEncoding ae = new ASCIIEncoding(); byte[] bArray = ae.GetBytes(filename); mem.Write(bArray, 0 , filename.Length); sending mem as stream in c# JAVA CODE InputStream in = new FileInputStream(filename); sending in as stream in java. JAVA int i=in.read() isto read byte by byte. C# int i=mem.readbyte() i have used. but returning -1. hava an idea...please help me out.
