Subtract one string from another

[micropathic]

How can I subtract one string from another in vb .net?

 

For instance:

 

if I have the string: "C:\Windows\Subdir1\Subdir2\Subdir3"

 

and another string like: "C:\Windows\Subdir1"

 

How can I return the remaining text "\Subdir2\Subdir3"

 

Thanks in advance for any help!

one way would be to use the inbuilt Replace function of a string...

Dim s1 As String = "C:\Windows\Subdir1\Subdir2\Subdir3"
Dim s2 As String = s1.Replace("C:\Windows\Subdir1" , "")
