Getting hashtags from a string
-
Hi, I have a string that may contains several hashtags starting with # like this example: "Hello, I am #Hashtag1 and #Hashtag2" I want to save those hashtags, as many as they are, in an array. Can anyone help me how to do it. Thank you in advance.

Use a regex to identify them:
\#\w*
You can then use the Regex.Matches to convert them to a collection with Linq methods:
string[] hashtags = Regex.Matches(myDate, @"\#\w*").Cast().Select(m => m.Value).ToArray();

That should be
Regex.Matches, notRegex.Match.
