As Burhan put it, regex is not always the solution to your problem -
in most cases, using regex for this kind of operations will just hog
your scripts.

Thanks Kim, that'll solve the problem very nicely.
As a matter of point though, and as I initially said I ma trying to get
to grips with REGEX, so perhaps if someone would be kind enough to
explain the format that it needs to be in for REGEX, as I've said, I'm
having problems with the escaping of the \ & (, so it's somethign I
defintely need to know for future reference.
Cheers
Alexis
