how to assign char to string?

I have a string Lat that has word in it, and I want to store it's last letter in a new string, but it gives me an error: "cannot implicitly convert "char" to string"

current =Lat[j];

My current is a string, when I try to use #.ToString, it gives me another error: Cannot convert method group 'ToString' to non-delegate type 'string'. Did you intend to invoke the method?

If you want the last character in your string, use System.Linq to retrieve the last letter.

string newString = original.Last().ToString();
// original.Last() gives you a char
// .ToString function after changes it to a string.

either current =Lat[j].ToString();

OR declare current as a char anyway (Can't tell from your usage if this is a good idea)

use #.ToString() method to convert it to a string.

like this: current = Lat[j].ToString()

Simplest way is

current = Lat[j].ToString();

or

current = Lat.Substring(Lat.Length - 1);

but it's a bit odd to access a string by it's indexer - if you post more code there may be a cleaner way to get you want you need.
