Answer 1

^[^_]*_

will match all text up to the first underscore. Replace that with the empty string.

For example, in C#:

resultString = Regex.Replace(subjectString, 
    @"^   # Match start of string
    [^_]* # Match 0 or more characters except underscore
    _     # Match the underscore", "", RegexOptions.IgnorePatternWhitespace);
