String manipulation - Replace not working.

[jspencer]

Woe is me! Can anyone see why this seemingly benign replace call won't actually replace anything?

 

Dim sText As System.String = "Wordl"
sText.Replace("Wordl", "world") 
Console.WriteLine(sText)

 

Prints 'Wordl' rather than the 'world' that I expected.

 

It's bizarre!

 

Thanks for any help.

Dim sText As System.String = "Wordl"
sText = sText.Replace("Wordl", "world")        'This line changed
Console.WriteLine(sText)
