String Manipulation - Problems?? -- dotnet framework

I would like to interate through each character in textboxcontrol.text.
However, I'm having trouble accomplishing this.

If I assign the value of a text property to a string variable and then do
strVar.Length I'm not getting the value I expect for the length. When I try
for strVar(1), it says strVar is not an array.

How do I evaluate each character in textboxcontrol.text? This is probably
vary simple but I must be overlooking something.

Hi,
you can use this piece of code to do what you asked :
char[] arrStr;
arrStr = Convert.ToString(textBox1.Text).ToCharArray();
for(int i = 0 ; i < arrStr.Length ; i ++)
{
MessageBox.Show(arrStr[i].ToString());
}

If you're using VB.NET, you can use strVar.Chars(1) etc.

You could also use a For Each loop:

For Each c as char in strVar
