replace first occurance

Mina

im trying to find a way in c# to replace first occurance of a regular expression in a string.

so if string = " found 1 found 2 found 3"

i want to do something like :

string = replacefirst("found","")

to give results:

string = " 1 found 2 found 3"

thanx

Try:

using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

........

string s = " found 1 found 2 found 3";
Regex r = new Regex("found ");
s = r.Replace(s, "", 1);
