Thanks JE for the response.  

One note: This will also match something like "rat",  but I only want the
"at" matched in rat.

You're close ...

[^cC]at  should match any single character that is not c (or C) followed by
"at"

Regex help please.  I've been busting my brain on this one.

Here's what I'm trying to do, I could have string like:
"...a cat hat prate at bird..."
And I want to match all the "at" strings except the "at" string in the
"cat".

I tried a bunch of stuff like:  "(^C)?at" but that didn't work.  Is this
possible?

Thanks in advance, Doug
