Silly c# array question

Question

Element 0 value:

TimeEntries[0] = "False,S,16:00,21:00";

Element 0 is assigned to:

timeLine = USER.TimeEntries[i];

I want to perform a .Split() on timeLine but it must be a string. What's the easiest way to go about this?

Thanks

It looks like timeLine is a String, so it's not clear what you mean. It should help if you post more code, and say how you want to split it. — Matthew Flaschen

You're right, thanks Matthew. ChaosPandion made some assumptions as to what I was trying to do. Being succinctly clear is not always a virtue of mine ;). — XMAN

Assuming TimeEntries is an object array you can do this:

var pieces = ((string)TimeEntries[0]).Split(',');

Thanks for the quick reply. Would never have thought I could type like that in c#- cool. I was trying .ToString.

@XO - No Problem, C# is full of surprises. I learn new techniques every day.
