Generally speaking, you should be able to load EBCDIC data using the correct System.Text.Encoding class (the link points to a list of all encodings, which includes EBCDIC encodings). The string is then Unicode in memory and can be saved to ASCII using the ASCII encoding.

This does what you ask for in the title of the question. However, I'm not sure whether this is what you wanted to know, since your question isn't fully clear to me. If you're looking for the ASCII character code, you can just cast the character to an int as long as they are ASCII characters only.
