I am having a string say

C#

string strDetail= "My Work,123456,Engineer,10000";

If I split the string using the code below I get exception.

C#

string[] Parameters = new string[10];
Parameters=strDetail.Split(',');

When I display the Splitted string only "My" is shown.

Because a space is used between the words "My" and "Work"

But I want the output as

C#

My Work
123456
Engineer
10000

How to achieve this.

No, you don't.
Try it again:

C#

string strDetail = "My Work,123456,Engineer,10000";
string[] Parameters = strDetail.Split(',');
foreach (string s in Parameters)
    {
    Console.WriteLine(s);
    }

And you will get:

My Work
123456
Engineer
10000

Instead, look at what your program is actually receiving as the strDetail string in the debugger: you aren't getting what you expect, I think.

Thanks Sir, you are right the input passed was in wrong format.
Because input was passed as arguments from another EXE.
