    trim a single quote from string

    I have been trying to use TrimEnd() to eliminate a single quote from the end
    of a string. I have used "'", ''', and a few others without success. Does
    anyone have experience with TrimEnd()?

      The method takes an array of characters as its argument.

              In the case of TrimEnd, you can specify the array just by giving the
              characters, or the single character in your case:

              x.TrimEnd ('\'');

              That's because the parameter is declared with the "params" modifier.
              Otherwise you'd have to do:

              x.TrimEnd (new char[] { '\'' });

              I would *strongly* recommend that if you're still fairly unfamiliar
              with C# that you lean the basics thoroughly before moving onto things
              like threading and GUI code. Threading can be tricky at the best of
              times, but you'll find it a lot harder if you're still trying to get to
              grips with the language itself.
