Dreamweaver Search and Replace with Wildcard?

Have several thousand instances of:
mysql_free_result($rst_airport);
where ($rst...) will always be different.

Simply need to remove all of these lines. Is there a way?

Yes, Dreamweaver's search and replace supports regular expressions. When you invoke the Search and Replace dialog, switch it to Code View and find the Use Regex checkbox on the dialog and check it. The search would look something like this:

mysql_free_result$\$rst.*$;

Try doing a search only on the above.
