how do i remove the last word from a string in c#


suppose
string is "hi how are you"
i wanna remove you

[Shashi Sadasivan]

use the indexOf to find the last index position of the space
And then use substring.

If you have issues with that, you could use a for loop, looping backwards from the string, and then use substring.

If you still have issues with it, Please post what you have done until now and we will help you out

Hi,

string w="hi how are you";
if (w.Length >0)
{
int p=w.LastIndexOf (" ") + 1;
Response.Write( w.Substring(p)) ;
}

:)
try that one now...
regards!

A shorter one if You are interested:

s = "hi how are you";
s.Substring(0, s.LastIndexOf(" ")<0?0:s.LastIndexOf(" "));

Cheers.
