Hi,
if there is only one "," in that string, you can do it this way to
String yourString = "first part,second part";
int i =yourString.indexOf(",");
String first = yourString.subString(0,i);
String second = yourString.subString(++i);with a StringTokenizer do it this way:
String yourString = "first part,second part";
StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(yourString,",");
String first = st.nextToken();
String second = st.nextToken();You see, if you have to separate more parts separated by "," the StringTokenizer would be the better choice - but that can be done also by a recursive or iterative method, which uses the first code.
Hope this helps
