Return array

Im trying to make a simple function to remove a string from each element in an array and then return the array (simple ehh)

So, what Ive got is:-
    public class RemoteFolder
    {
        public string RemoveFolderStings(string[] arrFiles, string folderName)
        {
            foreach (var fil in arrFiles)
            {
                fil.ToString().Replace(folderName, "");
            }
            return arrFiles;
        }
    }

Open in new window


However I cant compile as I get the error, on the line 'return arrFiles':-
Cannot convert expression type 'string[]' to return type 'string'

Any ideas how I can fix this?

Just for clarity.  You specified the function to return a single string, not an array of strings hence the error.  Just do what Jeff says to correct it.
