You can't remove items from an array, only from an arraylist.

use a list for that
List<String> someName = new List<String>();
to add elements you use someName.Add("a");
someName.Add("d");
to remove elements someName.Remove("d");
or remove them with the index someName.RemoveItem(4);
you use the list the same way you use an array
Console.WriteLine(someName[4].ToString()); // prints d
List<String> someName = new List<String>();
to add elements you use someName.Add("a");
someName.Add("d");
to remove elements someName.Remove("d");
or remove them with the index someName.RemoveItem(4);
you use the list the same way you use an array
Console.WriteLine(someName[4].ToString()); // prints d

Or..
I just typed that on my tablet which was a real feat but that is more pseudo code than copy pasta material. I'm sure there are errors!
Code:
Public string[] RemoveElement(string[] inArray, int index){
int tIndex = 0;
string returnArray = new string[inArray.size-1];
for(int i = 0; i < inArray.size; i++){
if(i != index){
returnArray[tIndex] = inArray [i];
tIndex ++;
}
}
return returnArray;

as far as I know you cannot do this in array but its a good idea to check stackoverflow.

Better to use a List than ArrayList, so you do not need to cast to your type.
Arraylists were introduced to better handle arrays, for adding / removing etc. But then ArrayList was superceded by List<Type>.
