Where can I add "Trim" to this C# statement?

Question

I'm stuck. Where can I add "Trim" to this C# statement? Each line will be a separate file name. But because each file may have space after it, I'd like to trim it off.

string[] lines = (File.ReadAllLines(@"C:\Users\Jim\Desktop\adminkeys.cfg"));

Thanks

Hum, maybe (File.ReadAllLines(@"C:\Users\Jim\Desktop\adminkeys.cfg")).Select(s=> s.Trim()); — AdrianoRR

If you are trying to trim each line, then you need to do it line by line, for example, with LINQ:

string[] lines = (File.ReadAllLines(@"C:\Users\Jim\Desktop\adminkeys.cfg")) .Select(l => l.Trim()).ToArray();

For .NET 4.0, it would be slightly more efficient to replace ReadAllLines with ReadLines: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd383503.aspx
