PARSE a Blank Space???

[Brad Isaacs]

Using ASP.NET 2.0 with SQL Server 2000

Inside my dropdown list box I am using an SQL DataSource to select the
following data

SELECT RTRIM(c.Name_First) + ' ' + RTRIM(c.Name_Last) AS Contact,
c.phone As PriPortPhone
FROM mppaContacts c

Dropdown list box works well .....


Example "Bart Simpson"

First_name = Bart
Last_name = Simpson

DropDownList -->> RTRIM(c.Name_First) + ' ' + RTRIM(c.Name_Last) AS Contact
ANS:: "Bart Simpson"

How can I parse the blank space I am trying to PARSE it based on the space
that I placed into the string
found in the DropDownlist box???





UPDATE mppaContacts
SET
[Name_First] = @FirstName
[Name_last] = @LastName
[phone] = @phone


Any ideas would be greatly appreciated........not sure how to extract the
individual names and place them into their specific fields.


Thanks in advance

DropDownList ID = ddlPriPortContact

'Split the strings into 2 halves

Dim P As Integer = ddlPriPortContact.Text.IndexOf(" "c)

Dim FirstName As String = ddlPriPortContact.Text.Substring(0, P)

Dim LastName As String = ddlPriPortContact.Text.Substring(P + 1)



Issue resolved................ thanks anyhow,
