<div>
is this what you're trying to do?<br />
<br />
string Word1 = &quot;Word1&quot;;<br />
HighlightWord = Regex.Replace(HighlightWor<wbr />d, Word1, &quot;&lt;strong&gt;Word1&lt;/strong&gt;&quot;, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
</div>


is this what you're trying to do?

string Word1 = "Word1";
HighlightWord = Regex.Replace(HighlightWord, Word1, "<strong>Word1</strong>", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);

<div>
Its strange... Does HighlightWord string has &quot;Word1&quot;? If it has, surely it must get replaced by &quot;&lt;strong&gt;Word1&lt;/strong&gt;&quot;.

That fixed that problem, and has caused another problem. As I only asked how to highlight a variable which you answered, I have opened another question with the new problem.<br />

Hi<br />
<br />
Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong here.<br />
string HighlightWord, Word1;<br />
<br />
If I run the code below it works OK<br />
HighlightWord = Regex.Replace(HighlightWor<wbr />d, &quot;harry&quot;, &quot;&lt;strong&gt;harry&lt;/strong&gt;&quot;, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);<br />
<br />
But when I try and change harry to a variable it will not work, can anyone tell me what I need to change<br />
<br />
HighlightWord = Regex.Replace(HighlightWor<wbr />d, &quot;Word1&quot;, &quot;&lt;strong&gt;Word1&lt;/strong&gt;&quot;, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);<br />
<br />
Regards<br />

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
