how the regex should be written if i want to subsitude the value into it
for example this is the regex i have..
(\\w\\d+ *Months) *(\\d+\\. \\d*)
i want to replace the word Months with exactly a certain string,
like string subsitude="2Months";
then the regex would be something like this...
(\\w\\d+ *subsitude) *(\\d+\\. \\d*)

However, what you must do is use {curly brackets} to break your search expression into one or more groups, and then reference matches in those groups with \1 for the first group, \2 for the second and so on.
I highly recommend downloading "Regex Builder" from http://www.gotdotnet.com/Workspaces/Workspace.aspx id=9e33c395-8275-4906-8a09-0bff41fdc1d6
This is a small utility that will allow you to very easily test your regular expressions.
