I need to retrieve the integer betwee

Answer 1

To get the int in between the brackets you can also try this way:

string tmpString = "ASDF [         6]";
int start = tmpString.IndexOf('[') + 1;
int length = tmpString.IndexOf(']') - start;
string subString = tmpString.Substring(start, length);
int tempInt;
if(Int.TryParse(subString, out tempInt))
return tempInt;
