Use capturing groups to keep a reference to the part of the pattern you want to keep. string pattern = @"(\(\d{3}\)\s\d{3}-)\d{4}"; string sRpl = @"$1XXXX"; You can have as many groups as you like, each one being references by $1, $2, etc. You can also name the groups, but that seems like overkill for this case. :)
