I'am a beginner in ASP.NET, now I have a simple problem, I suppose, for you
but difficult for me.

I have a device connected with a client machine through COM1, now the client
gets binary from it, then how can I transfer them to the server machine
where the data will be stored in Microsoft SQL Server?

I use MSComm control to help me get the data. The point is the data that
serial-port device returns is 256 bytes long and is stored in byte array.The
type of data's corresponding field in database is binary.What would I be
careful of in order not to destroy the structure or content or format of the
data? I am worried that the .net will treat it as the unicode string or
something else and then will change something of the data.

You might look at base 64 encoding.
