    That doesn't remove them, it just shows them.

    It may give the appearance of being correct but I don't believe it is what the OP asked for. You are not removing the characters from the string but simply creating an array that excludes them. Now you must recombine the array of characters back into a string to be able to use it.

        My first answer is only able to display value after removing character it will not remove for permanent. you can us Replace Method to remove . and ,

        string str = "abc, d.e f,g h,i. J,k";
        str = str.Replace(',',' ');
        str = str.Replace('.', ' ');
        Console.WriteLine(str);

            Using the Regex class -

            //Getting rid of commas ,
            strComma = ",";
            strReplace = string.Empty;
            Regex Re = new Regex(strComma);
            string newstring = Re.Replace(str,strComma,strReplace);
            //Do the same for .

            The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick

              you can simply remove , and . from your string value by using Split function. take a look how to display

              string str = "abc, d.e f,g h,i. j,k";
              string[] arr = str.Split(',', '.'); // remove all , and .
              foreach (string str1 in arr)
              {
              Console.Write(str1); //output abc de fg hi jk
              }

              You can do str = str.Split ( ... ).Join ( ... ), but it's not the right tool and inefficient.

                  string.Rmpty is perfectly acceptable syntax with the Scooby-Do extensions installed. :-D

                      Try this.

                      string str = "abc, d.e f,g h,i. J,k";
                      str = str.Replace(',', string.Empty).Replace('.', string.Empty);
