Regular Expressions are a language in themselves, and the syntax can be
daunting, at first. For anyone who is using Regex in the .NET Framework, I
always recommend getting one of the visual Regex tester tools.

Both of the above include source code, for those who are interested. They
are
primarily useful as tools to build and test regex''s that you can then
include into
apps.
