Parsing a string

[Tom Wright]

I've writtne a program that receives a string via TCP/IP. This string is made up of different data fixed fields. Sort of like thisissomedatablahblahblah. So if I know the field lenghts is there a way to copy data starting at a particular spot and reading for a particular length and returning that data? Something like ReadTo(6, 4) which would return the word "some". Thanks Tom Wright tawright915@yahoo.com

Look at the Substring method of the string class. --- b { font-weight: normal; }

Hi, There is a methode you can use for that. Here is an example from the one you wrotte :

            int startIndex = 6;
            int Length = 4;
            string MyString = "thisissomedatablahblahblah";
            string SubString = MyString.Substring(startIndex, Length);

Hop that can help
