I need to search a string and replace all occurances of %FirstName%
and %PolicyAmount%
with a value pulled from a database. The problem is the capitalization of FirstName varies. That prevents me from using the String.Replace()
method. I've seen web pages on the subject that suggest
Regex.Replace(strInput, strToken, strReplaceWith, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
However for some reason when I try and replace %PolicyAmount%
with $0
, the replacement never takes place. I assume that it has something to do with the dollar sign being a reserved character in regex.
Is there another method I can use that doesn't involve sanitizing the input to deal with regex special characters?
