Long String

[Kenny]

Hi

I'm sending a long string to a web service like this

field1,field2,field3,field4,field5,field6,field7+f ield1,field2,field3,field4,field5,field6,field7..

On the web service I need to read and to parse it in order to fill a DataSet and to update the DB,so do I have to use the String class' methods inside a Do-While or there is a more powerfull way to do it

Thks

Instead of passing a string value you could pass an array of strings. Then
you could walk through the array by using a foreach loop

string[] s = myWebservice.GetValue();
foreach(string item in s)
{
// do stuff
}

.... or if you are committed to passing the data as a string, you can split it into an array in the WS using String.Split(...)
Check the .NET framework class library documentation on the String.Split method for a comprehensive example
(Of course you still need a loop to walk the resulting array).
