Question

In my current code, I am using this code for files which have delimiter tab so I use ‘\t’ in code
Now delimiter changed to § instead of tab so what ASCII escape sequence should be used.

Current code:

string[] strFields = inputRecord.Split('\t');

New code:

string[] strFields = inputRecord.Split('***'); what *** should be?

I tried with § but does not work

You probably read the file in the wrong encoding. Try a different encoding:

new StreamReader(fileName, Encoding.GetEncoding("iso-8859-1")))
