Localization and parsing

Hello all,

Say I've got a localization string of the form "Item {0:D}" (which is
used as input for String.Format).
This string is localized in various langages (some of them where the
number is not at the end of the string).

How would you parse a string to check wether it matches this format?

The only way I've found is to use a regex like "Item[ ](?<Number>\d)",
but it seems overkill and unwieldy to have to maintain both a regex and
a format string for each translation, and to maintain them in sync. Any
simpiler way? (In C, I would use sscanf).

Thanks.
