Ben,

That makes sense. I get an error though, as it complains about the ?. What are 
they for? I thought the ? was the "0 or 1 occurances" operator.

Also, would this cover things like:

12.2.12.12 ?

I noticed that my current regex of
m = REReplace(m, "([0-9])\.([0-9])", "\1|\2", "ALL");

generate 12|2.12|12. I assume this is because the pointer after the first 
replace has passed the single "2". Is there a way around that too?

Thanks!
Cedric
