Hi! I have this tiny problem regarding replace() and matches(). i have a search string like "traits dunion" and a source string like "illtraits dunions", if i run replace("illtraits dunions", "traits dunion", "rep1") the result woul be "illrep1s". But i want my replace function to replace strings when the character before the search string is a space, a valid punctuation or a start of the string while the character that appears after the serach string is a space or a valid character. ex: illtraits dunions ---> should not be replaced ill traits dunions ---> should not be replaced ill traits dunion s ---> ill rep1 s ill "traits dunion" s ---> ill "rep1" s ill (traits dunion) s ---> ill (rep1) s ill"traits dunion"s ---> should not be replaced what regular expression can i use of replace or matchcs so that i can match this type of pattern? thanks, UlyLee __________________________________ Yahoo!
