I wrote the class like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;

public string insertBreak(string strMessage, int cdeIndex)
{
String jobname = strMessage;
if (jobname.Length > cdeIndex)
{
int k = cdeIndex;
int j = (jobname.Length / k);

for (int i = 0; i < j; i++)
{
int cdeDifference = 0;
int cdeFindspace = 0;
if ((k + 10) < jobname.Length)
{
cdeFindspace = jobname.IndexOf(" ", k - 2, 10);
}
else { cdeFindspace = -1; }
if (cdeFindspace != -1)
{
cdeDifference = cdeFindspace - k;
k = cdeFindspace;

}
jobname = jobname.Insert(k, "<br />");
if ((k + (k + 6)) < jobname.Length)
{
k = k + (k + 6) + (cdeDifference);
}
else
{
break;

}
}
}
return jobname;
}

But ther is an error in line :

public string insertBreak(string strMessage, int cdeIndex)

The message:
class, delegate, enum, ....

Where is th problem? and how tu use this class for breaking the text? Thank you.
