Hi Andrew,

Could you post what problem you are facing?

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Consolejunkies\Global.asax.cs(71): 'string' denotes a
'class' where a 'variable' was expected

 

[Peter Rilling]

GetType is a method on the Object class and does not accept any parameters.
Try using "typeof" instead of "GetType".

Peter, Rajiv,

I'm struggling to see what the solution for this could be.

Is there a way to convert a ArrayList to a string array - string[]

Your help is appreciated

string[] rolelistarray = (string[])rolelist.ToArray(typeof(string));
