That doesn't look like a job for Split.
Have you tried a Regular Expression?

You didn't really specified your problem correctly. Giving just the example does not mean defining. You need to define the general case formally and 100% accurate (and then maybe you won't need to ask a question). The problem should be really simple, so first ask yourself: http://whathaveyoutried.com so far?

split will work..

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/b873y76a.aspx[^]

C#

string words = "xxx1-0.1/1 yyy,ccc1,1";

string[] split = words.Split(new Char[] { '-', ' ', ',' });

foreach (string s in split)
{

    if (s.Trim() != "")
        Console.WriteLine(s);
}

regex is cooler though (in a nerdy i'm a coder sort of way)

Solution 2

Dim s As String = "xxx1-0.1/1 yyy,ccc1,1"
Dim ans = s.Split(New Char() {"-"c, " "c})(1)
MessageBox.Show(ans)

make it a function

Private Function getMySpecialValue(input As String) As String
  Return input.Split(New Char() {"-"c, " "c})(1)
End Function
