Find a string in a string... Living hell.
-
Hi, How could i find a string in a string ? For exemple, lets say i have the string "Hello! (How are you) ?", How could i find the string in the parentheses ? Is there a function that would return the "How are you" ? If not, is there a way to find the position of the "(" and of the ")" ? Thanks :) Heel

Of the top of my head, if you are looking for a string that appears between brackets then this should work:
string myString = "Hello (how are you)?"; int start = myString.IndexOf("(")+1; int end = myString.IndexOf(")"); string subString = myString.Substring(start,end-start);subString will contain "how are you" You might be able to do something with Regex as well, but I'm not real familar with that. -
