      There is and the character is '!'.
      I cannot remember off the top of my head at the moment how to use them.
      Try regexlib.com
      Do a search for negative lookaheads and lookbehinds (I think thats what
      theyre called)

          Hi, Chris

          this is ^ symbol. E.g. [^12] will match any character except 1 or 2.
