Hi,

I want to remove a particular word from the below string.

"abcd.exe /database=DeployAnywhere /add=C:\ProgramFiles\Altiris

I want to remove only "/database=DeployAnywhere" from the above string.Please let me know how to do string manipulation to achieve that.

Thanks.

There are many ways to do it and they all depend on what you really need to do.

Perhaps you need to use string.Split(' ') to split the string by space characters. Or maybe you neeed to use String.IndexOf("/database=") and then String.IndexOf(' ') to find the end of the string. There are many possiblities.

Assuming the initial double quote isn't part of the string, try this:

string s = @"abcd.exe /database=DeployAnywhere /add=C:\ProgramFiles\Altiris";
s = s.Replace("/database=DeployAnywhere", "");
