Hi,
you didn't write how you want your string to be split... anyway, how about this piece of code...:
string values = "TechRepublic.com, CNET.com, News.com, Builder.com, john/, smith, GameSpot.com";string[] arrayOfValues = values.Split(new char[] { ',', ' ' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);

i have the following code but it splits where a comma is backslashed which i don't want.
string
values = "TechRepublic.com, CNET.com, News.com, Builder.com, john/, smith, GameSpot.com"; string pattern = ",( =( :[^\"]*\"[^\"]*\")*( ![^\"]*\"))";System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex r =
new Regex(pattern); string[] sites = r.Split(values);any ideas

Ok, so '/,' is not the splitter... Try this:
string pattern = "\\s*( <=[^/]),\\s*";Andrej

How about something like this...:
string values = "TechRepublic.com, CNET.com, News.com, Builder.com, john/, smith, GameSpot.com";string pattern = "\\s*,\\s*";
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex r = new Regex(pattern);
string[] sites = r.Split(values);

andrej, your latest code gives me this:
john/,smith becomes john/
roger/,wilco becomes roger/

You're probably using .NET framework 1.x then... You can try without it, but the result would include empty array items... I'll look into your regex expression...

I don't think something like this is doable in one step... You should do at least one replace besides split...
