(Function in C i need to replicate)

I need to convert from an ascii string into a utf-8 encoded byte array to satisfy the encoding required by data packets being sent out from an excel spreadsheet to the comm port.

Have tried looking around but can t really find anything suitable - best I found was the code for vba but not compatible with vba - please help
