Thank you for the response Mahesh.
So I guess to further clarify my question about declaring a variable...
are both of these uses acceptable? Any pros or cons?
protected void someFunction()
{
   String strName = "Mahesh";
   // do something
}
protected void someFunction()
{
   string strName = "Mahesh";
   // do something
}

string is a data type in .NET and the String class represents a string data type. It's same as int is a data type in C# and Integer class represents an int.
