I am having a string in CSV format. Please see my earlier question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2865861/parsing-csv-string-and-binding-it-to-listbox
I can add new values to it by some mechanism. Everything will be same except the new values will have numeric part = 0. Take example I have this exsiting CSV string
1 , abc.txt , 2 , def.doc , 3 , flyaway.txt
Now by some mechanism i added two more files Superman.txt and Spiderman.txt to the existing string. Now it became
1 , abc.txt , 2 , def.doc , 3 , flyaway.txt, 0, Superman.txt, 0 , Spiderman.txt
What i am doing here is that this csv string is paased into SP where its splitted and inserted to db. So for inserting I have to take the files with numeric part 0 only rest will be omiited .Which will be further then converted into CSV string
Array will look like this
str[0]="1"
str[1]="abc.txt"
str[2]="2"
str[3]="def.doc "
str[4]="3"
str[5]="flyaway.txt"
str[6]="0"
str[7]="Superman.txt"
str[8]="0"
str[9]="Spiderman.txt"
So at last i want to say my input will be
1 , abc.txt , 2 , def.doc , 3 , flyaway.txt, 0, Superman.txt, 0 , Spiderman.txt
Desired Output:
0, Superman.txt, 0 , Spiderman.txt
