Equivalent of the VB.NET -- Like -- operator

Is there an equivalent of the LIKE operator in VB.NET for C#? Can't find
anything in docs. Would I have to use regular expressions ?

Lloyd,

Yes, unless you want to reference Microsoft.Visua lBasic.dll and call
the implementation of Like that way.

Hello, Here's a thought that I'm sure has already occurred to someone else, I just can't find any record of it yet. An XML document is just a more verbose and clumsy representation of an ordinary Lisp S-expression. So it's easy enough to translate some XML into equivalent Lisp. Now I turn it over to the Lisp parser, which creates the equivalent of the DOM for me.
