regex help

[Tem]

I need to write a regex pattern that matches (somethingA|som ethingB) and
replace it with text on the left side of |

Input
"(something ) something (somethingA|som ethingB) something
(somethingC|som ethingD) (something) something"

Output
"(something ) something (somethingA) something (somethingC) (something)
something"

Thanks

Try:

string s = "(something ) something (somethingA|som ethingB) something
(somethingC|som ethingD) (something) something";
string s2 = Regex.Replace(s , @"(\([^\|\)]*)(\|[^\)]*)(\))", "$1$3");

Re: regex help

How can I modify this so that the replace string does have ()

Input
"(something ) something (somethingA|som ethingB) something
(somethingC|som ethingD) (something) something"

Output
"(something ) something somethingA something somethingC (something)
something"


I tried to do it myself, but couldn't get it to work.

You asked that question a couple of weeks ago and I
replied back then.
