Cannot implictly convert type 'char' to 'string'

[Davor]

This is what I want to do:

int currentWord = 0;
currentWord++;
textBoxOtherLang.Text = orginalLanguage[currentWord];

But, I get a "Cannot implictly convert type 'char' to 'string'"
error when trying to do it. How do I fix it?

Thanks!

textBoxOtherLang.Text = orginalLanguage[currentWord].ToString();

Hi Davor,

textBoxOtherLang.Text = orginalLanguage[currentWord].ToString();

or you can always use the Convert class:

textBoxOtherLang.Text = Convert.ToString( orginalLanguage[currentWord] );

the latter expression just call ToString()

Hope this help,

Well, what exactly are you trying to do? What is the type of
orginalLanguage, and what are you expecting to see on the screen?
