I have a problem with breaking tags, i have a tag called "ActualValues\DB4.Act_Speed_M1001" but i only want the part "Act_Speed_M1001" 
 
how can i use IndexOf or something else in C# to take everything after the dot .
 
i hope some1 can understand my problem  xD

i think this must work, but the problem is, when i try to debug he sais: 'string' does not contain a definition for 'lastIndexOf'
do you know what to do with that?

Sorry I alternate between Javascript and C# a lot.  In C# method names begin with upper case letters try:-
 
LastIndexOf

Omg -,- ok ok.. well he doesn't gives an error anymore, but I still don't got what i want 
 
this is a part of what i got right now:
 

StreamReader sr = new StreamReader("C:\\5030_20070803_071829_MP270.csv");

m_TagList = new List<Tag>();

string Line;

sr.ReadLine();
while ((Line = sr.ReadLine()) != null)

{
string[] LineElem = Line.Split(";".ToCharArray());

Tag T = new Tag();

T.Name = LineElem[0];
string tag = (T.Name);

int partIndex = tag.LastIndexOf('.');

string part = null;

if (partIndex > -1) part = tag.Substring(partIndex + 1);

bool TagFound = false;

foreach (Tag T2 in m_TagList)

{
if (T2.Name == T.Name)

TagFound = true;

}
if (!TagFound)

m_TagList.Add(T);
}
sr.Close();
 
he takes different out of the csv File, but all the tags start with ActualValues\DB4. but you knew that i guess.. 
after he takes these tags out of the csv File he puts them bag in a new csv file, but i want them without the ActualValues\DB4.
 
can you see what i'm doing wrong ? 
 
thx

You aren't doing anything with the part variable wich contains the value you are after.  I suspect, but I can't be sure since I don't know enough about what you are doing, that you should be doing this:-
