Convert to UCS2

I am working on a C# based application and came up with this problem of converting a string to UCS2 encoding. Basically, I have to take some text from XML and convert it to UCS2 and write this UCS2 code to a *.dat file.
Is there a way to do this (convert a string to UCS2 encoding) in C#.NET? if not, what are the options then?
Thanks,

There isn't an included Encoding in .NET that will convert the string to UCS-2 encoding. Your best bet is BigEndianUnicode or UTF-16, but these won't work very well.

H, I have this string that I got from a htm file
String s = "%u05d9%u05e8%u05d5%u05e9%u05dc%u05d9%u05dd"
It is in UTF8 code value Hebrew characters and I want to convert it to a real string that I can write to a file and have meaning (not just the code value of the char set).
I tried to do this but it does not work -
byte[] bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(s);
addr = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(bytes);
The original string might have been UTF-8 encoded, but this is irrelevant because what you have right now is an URL encoded string. You can decode it using HttpUtility.UrlDecode:
System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlDecode("%u05d9%u05e8%u05d5%u05e9%u05dc%u05d9%u05dd")
returns ירושלים
try
System.Net.WebUtility.UrlDecode(s);
