How to Convert String into ArrayCollection in Flex?

Actually my Flex Application ..Sample code

private var selectedDays:String = null;
            protected function selectRepeatedDays(event:MouseEvent):void
            {
                selectedDays = new String();
                if(MON.selected==true)
                {
                    selectedDays += "MONDAY,";
                    Alert.show("Monday  :"+selectedDays);
                }
                if(TUE.selected==true)
                {
                    selectedDays +=  "TUESDAY,";
                }
                if(WED.selected==true)
                {
                    selectedDays += "WEDNESDAY,";
                    Alert.show("Monday  :"+selectedDays);
                }
                if(THU.selected==true)
                {
                    selectedDays += "THURSDAY,";
                }

}
var arr:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
arr = selectedDays.substr(0, selectedDays.length-1).toString();

Alert.show(arr.lenth)

But it is not convert... the Alert Statement Not Prompt .. So How to Convert This String into ArrayCollection...

use below code snippet to convert String to ArrayCollection

  1. Convert String to Array using split method

    var array:Array = selectedDays.split(",");

  2. Convert Array to ArrayCollection

    var selectedDaysArr:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection(array);

Use the method split to convert the String to Array:

var array:Array = selectedDays.split(",");

Then (if needed yet) add each item of Array to the ArrayCollection:

var arr:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
for each (var str:String in array) {
    arr.addItem(str);
}
