Removing prefix XXX\username

Nov 4th, 2005

I need to remove the prefix(domain name) if exist in front of a username from a session variable.

paramsql.Value = Session("ssNtUser")

say the domain is za

username is macupryk

I would like to remove the za\ so in the session variable I have

macupryk only but the domain name can change. Also there might not even be a domain name with a slash.

Thanks.

You could also try just running a split command on the string if it contains a backslash.

Hi,

U can use the split method of string object to get the username.

string strUser = Session("ssNtUser") as string;
string[] strTemp = strUser.Split('\\');
if(strTemp.length > 0)
strUser = strTemp[strTemp.length - 1];
paramSql.Value = strUser;

Thanks,
Kedar
