converting string with multiple values to string array

[gottimukkala]

Hi All, I am writing a function that accepts a string with values seperated by commas. I want to loop through all these values in the string and send each value as a string to another method. I am tring to do like this using arrays and loop through each value in the array: for this i am getting a error message private string InsertPublication(string structureId, string language, string title, string parentId, string contextId, int sortOrder, string pubIds) { string _response = ""; string[] pubId = new string[]; if (pubIds.Contains(",")) { for (int i = 0; i < pubIds.Length; i++) { int first_pId = pubIds.IndexOf(','); pubId[i] = pubIds.Substring(0, first_pId); } } else { pubId[0] = pubIds; } for (int i = 0; i < pubId.Length; i++) { if (parentId == "") { parentId = null; } string _elementId = _wdService.InsertPublication(structureId, language, title, parentId, contextId, sortOrder); if (_elementId.IndexOf("Error") < 0) { if (pubId[i].ToString() != "") { try { string _response2 = _wdService.JoinLeafPublication(structureId, _elementId, pubId[i].ToString()); _response = _response2; if (_response2.IndexOf("Success") == -1) { _response = "Failed"; } } catch { _response = "Failed"; } } else { _response = _elementId; } } else { _response = _elementId; } } return _response; } could any one please tell me. Thanks Aruna.G

If the input string is delimited, such as with a comma, then its easy to break it apart. string[] parts = input.split(',', StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);

only two letters away from being an asset

use Split method for strings which return an array e.g string[] str=strvalue.Split(','); now str will contain all values seperated by commas which u can pass to another functions after looping through it.
