  I have a tuff question, and ill give anyone my first born child for an answer. Im reading a comma delimited text file. So i have strings that I read in that look like this, "test", "test2", "test3", well here is my problem. The file gets screwed up from time to time and throws in extra quotes whereever it wants. So I often get this ""test, """"test2"", .
  Im using the split function with a string array to split the line when i read it in, but i need to know how to remove those damn quotes from the strings. I have tried using the trim function and the replace function to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  

  
  Thanks,
  Ryan

  why not just split by the commas and do .Replace("\"","");   ?
  

  
  What does that do that you don't want?
