I've been trying to clean MAC addresses so that it doesn't matter if you hand it "0011223344", or "00:11:22:33:44", or "00 11 22 33 44". My button_click code... string macString = textBox1.Text.Replace( ":", "" ); macString = macString.Replace("-", ""); macString = macString.Replace(" ", ""); WakeFunction(macString); Thanks so much.

My button_click code…
string macString = textBox1.Text.Replace( ":", "" );
macString = macString.Replace("-", "");
macString = macString.Replace(" ", "");
WakeFunction(macString);

Then you can re-concatenate the tokens with or without a single space in between (as in, normal sentence spacing).

you could use

string trim = Regex.Replace(text, @"\s+", " ").Trim();

if you want to keep the words seperated with spaces
e.g.
for this example we will get :

My test string is quite long

Well, that depends on the application, doesn't it? It's unfortunate because it would've been nice for the Trim method to handle all cases. e.g., [Flags] public enum TrimOptions { Start = 0x01, Middle = 0x02, End = 0x04, } "How is that unfortunate? a string with no whitespace at the beginning or end is FAR FAR more useful than a string with all whitespace removed."

[Flags]
public enum TrimOptions
{
Start = 0×01,
Middle = 0×02,
End = 0×04,
