How could this not work?

string str = (string)value; int i = str.IndexOf("."); str.Remove(i, 1);

Because its not assigned to anything I'm still thinking like a 'C' prgrammer. Doh!

Remember strings in C# are immutable, so you need something like str = str.Remove(i, 1) if you want to modify a string. regards

It works just fine, it even creates the string that you want. It's only that you don't keep the reference to the string, so it floats around in heap limbo until it gets garbage collected. :) So close... ;)
