Help with Trimming String Array Please!

[Arcdigital]

Hey, I was wondering if anyone can help me with trimming a string array. I am calling an API that returns this (At bottom of post). I am then using this to convert that into a string array

string[] apiresult = new string[25];
char[] splitter = { ';' };
apiresult = result.Split(splitter);

My question is, how do I trim the string array so it just contains success 1 Bob etc... instead of result=success userid=1 firstname=Bob etc...

result=success;userid=1;firstname=Bob;lastname=Smith;companyname=Smith Enterprises;email=bsmith@boostplatform.com;address1=1 Smith Drive;address2=;city=Bobtown;state=Bobstate;postcode=12345;country=US;phonenumber=419-123-4567;notes=TESTING ACCOUNT!!;password=bsmith;status=Active;credit=1010.00;taxexempt=;language=;lastlogin=No Login Logged;billingcid=0;domainemails=;generalemails=;invoiceemails=;productemails=;supportemails=;

you need to take each string and split it on the =. So, this is a two step thing. you need to iterate over the one set and split each string to get the second set.

Othr than CG suggested, you can try this also

string[] apiresult = result.Split(';', '=');
List<string> expectedList = new List<string>(apiresult.Length / 2);
for (int i = 1; i < apiresult.Length; i = i +2)
{
expectedList.Add(apiresult[i]);
}

Splitting is done in single step here.

Thanks, but I don't want the firstname, lastname, etc... part of the array. Just the actual answers (Bob, Smith, etc...)
