I know we have some decent programmers on the list, perhaps someone might
help me out some?

I have routine that reads in an RTF file, and then needs to find bookmarks
and insert a value for the bookmark.  I'm doing this in Cold Fusion, but the
problem is pretty generic.  I'm usings CF's "replace" function, and it
works, but takes way too long in some cases.  So I thought that if I use
regular expressions, I might speed things up.

This is the string I'm searching for:  "{\b0 {\*\bkmkstart bookmark_name}"

The regex I have come up with for this thus far is :
"\{\\\\*\\\\bkmkstart+bookmark_name\}"
but this isn't matching.

Any tips on what the regex should be for that string?  Am I even close?

Thanks in advance.

Shawn

(ps.  I'm a regex newbie - can you tell?)
