    Help needed with a Regular Expression

    Hi,

    I need some help to create a regular expression. It is a little like a search and replace, I want to replace any string that contains any substring in parentheses with the same string but the words in parentheses colored RED.

    Eg

    Take this text in TextBox1:

    "The Prime Minister (that idiot from Scotland) made a speech today"

    and convert to this text in RichTextBox1:

    "The Prime Minister (that idiot from Scotland) made a speech today"

    TIA

    Rock

    You dont actually need a Regex for this, see the code from VBDT in this thread...
