Please can anyone advise me on how i can replace a particular character from a 2 mb string without using replace function in .NET

You can use a `StringBuilder` or `unsafe` code. Be more specific about what you're trying to do. — Gabe, Dec 10 '10 at 08:47
well, i knw replace is the best way to do it but i am after exploring more options/ways to do it — Amit, Dec 10 '10 at 08:48
Because replace function creates a new string; string is immutable. @Gabe is right, use StringBuilder. — Dmitry Karpezo, Dec 10 '10 at 08:49
please refer this link , it has a good comparison between the 'replace' functions http://blogs.msdn.com/b/debuggingtoolbox/archive/2008/04/02/comparing-regex-replace-string-replace-and-stringbuilder-replace-which-has-better-performance.aspx — wizzardz, Dec 10 '10 at 08:53
