Solution 4

I achieved my solution in this way

C#

string[] FinalArr = { }; // An array
        if (RawAddedItems.Length > 1) //<rawaddeditems is my data
        {
            if (RawAddedItems.Contains("OrderPageRadios"))//To confirm the data which needs to be parsed
            {
                int index = RawAddedItems.IndexOf("OrderPageRadios"),
                    secondindex = RawAddedItems.IndexOf("[", index) + 1,
                    LastIndex = RawAddedItems.IndexOf("]", index);

                string NewDBString = RawAddedItems.Substring(secondindex, LastIndex - secondindex);

                FinalArr = NewDBString.Split("|");
                return FinalArr;
            }

            return FinalArr;
        }
        else
            return FinalArr;
    }

Any questions regarding the code can be answered :)

Solution 1

Try this

C#

string str = "this is a #string";
string ext = str.Substring(0, str.LastIndexOf("#") + 1);

THis should work. tweak it as pr your needs.
