Create and write to a text file inmemory and convert to byte array in one go

Write text into Memory Stream.

byte[] bytes = null;
using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
{
    using(TextWriter tw = new StreamWriter(ms)){
       tw.Write("blabla");
       tw.Flush();
       ms.Position = 0;
       bytes = ms.ToArray();
    }
  
}

UPDATE

Use file stream Directly and write to File

using (var fs = new FileStream(@"C:\ed\test.csv", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite))
{
    using (TextWriter tw = new StreamWriter(fs))
    {
        tw.Write("blabla");
        tw.Flush();
    }
}

You can get a byte array from a string using encoding:

Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(aString);

Or

Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(aString);

But I don't know why you would want a csv as bytes. You could load the entire file to a string, add to it and then save it:

string content;

using (var reader = new StreamReader(filename))
{
    content = reader.ReadToEnd();
}

content += "x,y,z";

using (var writer = new StreamWriter(filename))
{
    writer.Write(content);
}

Update: Create a csv in memory and pass back as bytes:

var stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
foreach(var line in GetLines())
{
    stringBuilder.AppendLine(line);
}
return Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(stringBuilder.ToString());
