Answer 1

string x ="Hi ,World";
string y = x;
char[] whitespace = new char[]{ ' ',\t'};          
string[] fooArray = y.Split(whitespace);  // now you have an array of 3 strings
y = String.Join(" ", fooArray);
string[] target = { "Hi", "World", "VW_Slep" };

for (int i = 0; i < target.Length; i++)
{
    string v = target[i];
    string results = Array.Find(fooArray, element => element.StartsWith(v, StringComparison.Ordinal));
    //
    if (results != null)
    { MessageBox.Show(results); }

}
