    <p>You can use a regex to match a balanced pair, then figure out what to do with the braces. Remember that .NET regexs aren't "regular".</p> <pre><code>class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { var d = new Dictionary&lt;string, string&gt; { { "Name", "World" } }; var t = new Test(); Console.WriteLine(t.Replace("Hello {Name}", d)); Console.WriteLine(t.Replace("Hello {{Name}}", d)); Console.WriteLine(t.Replace("Hello {{{Name}}}", d)); Console.WriteLine(t.Replace("Hello {{{{Name}}}}", d)); Console.ReadKey(); } } class Test { private Regex MatchNested = new Regex( @"\{ (?&gt; ([^{}]+) | \{ (?&lt;D&gt;) | \} (?&lt;-D&gt;) )* (?(D)(?!)) \}", RegexOptions.IgnorePatternWhitespace | RegexOptions.Compiled | RegexOptions.Singleline); public string Replace(string input, Dictionary&lt;string, string&gt; vars) { Matcher matcher = new Matcher(vars); return MatchNested.Replace(input, matcher.Replace); } private class Matcher { private Dictionary&lt;string, string&gt; Vars; public Matcher(Dictionary&lt;string, string&gt; vars) { Vars = vars; } public string Replace(Match m) { string name = m.Groups[1].Value; int length = (m.Groups[0].Length - name.Length) / 2; string inner = (length % 2) == 0 ? name : Vars[name]; return MakeString(inner, length / 2); } private string MakeString(string inner, int braceCount) { StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(inner.Length + (braceCount * 2)); sb.Append('{', braceCount); sb.Append(inner); sb.Append('}', braceCount); return sb.ToString(); } } } </code></pre>

    1. COThanks Gavin ! I knew about balancing groups, but they're not necessary here, because the number of opening and closing braces doesn't have to be the same. This is a legal format string : "Hello {{{Name}" ; it would be formatted as "Hello {World". However, your idea of checking the number of braces in the replacement code is pretty good, I will look into it.

    2. COI eventually used a technique similar to yours, so I accept your answer. Thanks !

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
