Solution 1

Try this:

C#

string str = txtyourword.Text;
char[] arr = str.ToCharArray();
Array.Sort(arr);
Response.Write(arr);

OR

C#

string str = txtyourword.Text;
char[] arr = str.OrderBy(s => s.ToString()).ToArray();
Console.WriteLine(arr);

And many more here[^].

Try this its same as Amit with a minor change

char[] temp = yourword.ToArray();
Array.Sort(temp);
string sorted = new string(temp);

Why on earth you wanted to do like this. Nevertheless

C#

char [] yourword = txtyourword.Text.ToArray();

            try
            {
                Array.Sort(yourword);

                foreach (var str in yourword)
                {
                   // Console.WriteLine(str);
                }
               // Console.ReadLine();
            }

            catch
            {
            }

Try this

        string[] myArray = new string[s.Length];
        for (int i = 0; i < s.Length; i++)
        {
            myArray[i] = s[i].ToString();
        }

        Array.Sort(myArray);
