Question

Suppose I have this string:

string str = "The quick brown fox     jumps over the lazy dog";

How can I replace or ignore the spaces in the string and enter each word in the multiline textBox?

Expected output:

The  
quick    
brown  
fox  
jumps  
over  
the   
lazy   
dog  

My .NET framework version is 2.0

Answer 1

textBox.Text = String.Join(Environment.NewLine, str.Split(new char[] {' ' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries));

UPDATE: Of course, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries should be used.

UPDATE2: alternative version via regular expression

textBox.Text = Regex.Replace(str, @"\s+", Environment.NewLine);
