Simple Parse Question

[Erik Lautier]

Hi, what's a quick way to parse a string and remove everything after
the comma including the comma? I.e., if the string is "Hi, how are
you", I would want to just keep "Hi".

Thanks!

Probably something like

MyString.SubString(0, MyString.IndexOf(",") - 1)

If you need more complex parsing, take a look at Regular expressions.

That's great, thank you - got rid of the -1 at the end but other than
that it does the job.
