<div>
Thank you. &nbsp;Is there anyway of doing with replacementstring = &quot;+$1+&quot;? &nbsp;The reason that I ask is that I have other patterns that I am using in my code that use &quot;$1&quot; and it would streamline my code a bit.

Thank you.  Is there anyway of doing with replacementstring = "+$1+"?  The reason that I ask is that I have other patterns that I am using in my code that use "$1" and it would streamline my code a bit.

If you also captured the + characters then you could use a replacement $1$2$3 but not just $1 I'm afraid.

Pattern needed to find a combination of characters and replace a single character from that combination.

A regular expression ("regex") is a sequence of characters that define a search pattern, mainly for use in pattern matching with strings, or string matching, i.e. "find and replace"-like operations. Regular expression processors are found in several search engines, search and replace dialogs of several word processors and text editors, and in the command lines of text processing utilities, such as sed and AWK. Many programming languages provide regular expression capabilities, some built-in, for example Perl, JavaScript, Ruby, AWK, and Tcl, and others via a standard library, for example .NET languages, Java, Python and C++ (since C++11). Most other languages offer regular expressions via a library.

Regular Expressions

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
