I get no errors, and no warnings when compiling what I posted, and upon further inspection I realise why. The first entry you get for intellisense is Split(... cli::array<__wchar_t,1> ^seperator) so it's just converting my 3 into a wchar_t. Now I feel stupid... Thanks for your help.

---CODE--- // Split Test: String::Split does NOT work properly when given a # of substrings to return void splitTest() { String^ toBeSplit = "a b c d e f g h"; array^ split = toBeSplit->Split(' ',3); //Expected: "Count: 3" Actual "Count: 8" Console::WriteLine("Count: {0}",split->Length); } ---END CODE--- Am I doing something ridiculously stupid, or is this really a bug? The equivilent C# code works properly.

Code is self explanitory. Adding braces around the for each block fixes it, but this shouldn't be required. Unless of course you can point me to something that says this is expected behaviour.
