Using the word "Urgent" won't help you so much. People here help because they want to and when they can.

Solution 1

Three options:
1) Use built in method:

C#

string csv = string.Join(",", myArrayOfStrings);

2) Use Linq method:

C#

string csv = myArrayOfStrings.Aggregate((i, j) => i + "," + j);

3) Use a loop and a StringBuilder.

C#

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
string sep = "";
foreach (string s in myArrayOfStrings)
   {
   sb.AppendFormat("{0}{1}", sep, s);
   sep = ",";
   }
string csv = sb.ToString();
