  Glad it helped.
  If you need any help converting from base 36 -> base 10 just ask. But it shouldn't be difficult. :)

  Hi,
  check if works for you:
  
  public String ConvertToBase(int num, int nbase)
  {
  String chars = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
  
  // check if we can convert to another base
  if(nbase < 2 || nbase > chars.Length)
  return "";
  
  int r;
  String newNumber = "";
  
  // in r we have the offset of the char that was converted to the new base
  while(num >= nbase)
  {
  r = num % nbase;
  newNumber = chars[r] + newNumber;
  num = num / nbase;
  }
  // the last number to convert
  newNumber = chars[num] + newNumber;
  
  return newNumber;
  }

  Actually, you may want to use the standard Base-40 encoding (which is supported by .Net)

  for(long i = 100000; i < 200000; ++i)
  {
  string enc = Convert.ToBase64String(BitConverter.GetBytes(i));
  long dec = BitConverter.ToInt64(Convert.FromBase64String(enc), 0);
  Console.WriteLine("From {0}, to {1}, to {2}", i, enc, dec);
  }

  Dear n0n4me,

  Yeah its works. Looking at your code, i think i can start create the opposite conversion from base36 to base10 too.

  Thank you for your help. Your help is very appreciated and invaluable for me.

  Warmest Regards,

  Freddy Halim
