Instead of {0:D3} you can also use the zero placeholder, e.g. {0:000} will pad with zeros to minimum length of three.

Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Format(iCryptedByte, "000");

You'll need to add a reference to the Microsoft.VisualBasic assembly.

Given this VB code:

Strings.Format(iCryptedByte, format)

Replace with this C# code:

var csformat = "{0:" + format + "}";
String.Format(csformat, iCryptedByte);

Depends on `iCryptedByte` type. if it's `int` - yes, `ToString(string)` exists – abatishchev Jul 21 '10 at 07:08
