can anyone tell me the way to do this?? i am getting struck in converting string into binary.. i exactly want each binary number entered to be stored as separate array values.. pls help..

Any code with this? What you need to do is convert the String to integers. You can use String methods found in the API's to set the numbers to characters the parse them as integers.
