Separate String

Hello,

I have a string as follows:
MyString="Name1,Name2"

I want to create 2 strings from it:
String1 = "Name1"
String2 = "Name2"

So String1 gets the characters on the left of "," and String2 the
characters on the right.

How can I do this?

Thanks,
Miguelhello

you can use the String.Split method for that

string[] parts = MyString.Split (',');
parts[0] will be 'Name1' and parts[1] will be 'Name2'

Dim MyString2 As String = MyString.Split(",")

MyString2(0) = "Name1"
MyString2(1) = "Name2"
