Split a string by a character

Question

I have this string here:

String FileNameOrginal = "lighthouse-126.jpg";

and I am trying to split the string into 2, seperating it with "-"

I have tried the following, but I get a syntax error on the Spilt:

String FileNameOrginal = drProduct["productHTML"].ToString();
string[] strDataArray = FileNameOrginal.Split("-");

Please Help, I do not understand what I am doing wrong.

Answer 1

You just need a character instead of string:

string[] strDataArray = FileNameOrginal.Split('-');
