Removing duplicates from string

[Jim from DME]

I have a string of comma delimited characters and I want to search and remove any duplicate strings (i.e. John,Sally,Joe,John,Fred,John to John,Sally,Joe,Fred). What is the easiest way to do this with LabVIEW? Has something already been written that will do this?

I would transfer the whole list in an array, sort it compare each item with the item before, if it is equal than delete it.
