Removing embedded (white) space from string

[Julie]

I currently use the following to remove embedded spaces from strings:

dest = str.Replace(" ", "");

and resort to something like the following to remove white space:

dest = str.Replace(" ", "").Replace("\t", "").etc.;

Is there a better, more efficient way?

Use a regular expression:

Regex r = new Regex(@"\s");
dest = r.Replace(str, "");

Use a regular expression:

Regex r = new Regex(@"\s");
dest = r.Replace(str, "");

Excellent -- thanks!

Ya know, sometime I have GOT to learn more about regular expressions. I've never really been able to grasp the concept of them,
though I know they are very powerful.
