newline character replacement in a string?

Question

I have a string in tstring. It's in the form of A,B,C,D,E,F

I want to replace the commas with returns. So I use

 tstring = tstring.Replace(",",System.Environment.NewLine);

I write this string to file with:

 var fileName = "save.txt";
 var fw = new StreamWriter(Application.dataPath + "/data/" + fileName);
 fw.Write (tstring);
 fw.Close();

When I open save.txt it reads ABCDEF

I've tried replacing with "\n" instead, but with the same result. Any ideas and help appreciated!

Ah, love it when I'm able to answer my own question. My string tstring was an array. I just needed to join it together with

 var finalsavedata = Array(mysavedata).Join(System.Environment.NewLine);

When I write the file now, I get what I expected:

A

B

C

D

E

F
