Martin Ho What I really need is a short simple solution for this scenario: Imagine word like this: "TheSimpleSolution" I need to turn it to: "The Simple Solution" I need a solution, something which would turn connected words and separate them using spaces. Basically, a script which would add the space ahead of each capitalized character. Please, be so good and let me know, I know I am pretty much asking for ready script, but whatever you mention, whatever help or sugestion will be much appreciated. Thanks a lot.

I have seen that even for short strings the stringbuilder gives beter result and sometimes OPs are giving a simple sample to use it for long strings. For Martin, with the stringbuilder the code from Fabricio can be. Public Function SplitWords(ByVal s as string) as string Dim strAns as new system.text.stringbuilder Dim c as char For Each c in s If Char.IsUpper(c) Then strAns.append( " ") End If strAns.append(c) Next Return strAns.tostring End Function > Cor Reply to this message...        Fabricio (VIP) I don't use the Stringbuilder object much... actually I've never used it. When you say it "gives better results" do you mean performance. Is it more efficient than a built-in string object. Also, how's its overhead compared to the string object? Thanks for the info Cor. -Fabricio Click here to reveal e-mail address P.S. What's OP?

Wagner [MVP] (VIP) * "=?Utf-8?B?RmFicmljaW8=?=" <Click here to reveal e-mail address> scripsit: [Original message clipped] Strings in .NET are immutable, contantenating two strings will create a new string object that consists of the concatenated strings. 'StringBuilder' overcomes this issue. I suggest to take a look at the documentation for the 'System.String' and 'System.Text.StringBuilder' classes. -- M S Herfried K.
