the code is as follows:

#include <wx/wx.h>
#include <wx/regex.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, int arg[])
{
     char regex[255];
     wxString cookieField = 
"Njky=gg6435345b at APC216@172.16.1.15 at D34fD$F$F$F";

     wxString userID;
     char *p;

     printf("Enter cookie RegEx and press enter: ");
     fgets(regex, sizeof(regex), stdin);

     //now remove \n
     if ((p = strchr(regex, '\n')) != NULL);
       *p = '\0';

     //static wxRegEx cookieRegEx(wxT("^[^@]*@\([^@]\+\)@"));
     //static wxRegEx cookieRegEx(wxT("^[^@]*@([^@]+)@"));
     wxRegEx cookieRegEx(wxT(regex));

     if (cookieRegEx.Matches(cookieField)) {
      userID = cookieRegEx.GetMatch(cookieField, 1);
      printf("User ID: %s\n", userID.c_str());
     }
}

And it works now with the following RegEx' "^[^@]*@([^@]+)@" !!!  Thank 
you all of you!!!
