Answer 1

You are looking to match GUID's in a string using a regular expression.

This is what you want, I suspect!

public static Regex regex = new Regex(
  "(\\{{0,1}([0-9a-fA-F]){8}-([0-9a-fA-F]){4}-([0-9a-fA-F]){4}-"+
  "([0-9a-fA-F]){4}-([0-9a-fA-F]){12}\\}{0,1})",RegexOptions.CultureInvariant|RegexOptions.Compiled);

Match m = regex.Match(lineData);
if (m.Succes)
{
...
}
