Hi Listers,
Please bare with me while I attempt to explain what I want to do.
I want to build a string that has a variable name inside it. Then, I want
to send that string to a function which will recognise the variable name,
embedded din the string, and replace it with its value. Is this possible?
By way of an illustration:
private void stuff()
{
string firstname;
string lastname;
string result;
result = buildString();
MessageBox.Show(result.ToString());
}
private string buildString()
{
return "Here is the string with the two variables - firstname and lastname";
}
I also tried putting {} around the variable name but, as expected that
didn't work. Any suggestions on an elegant solution?
Thx,
Jeff
