Regex to remove (anythng) from string?

SciFiGuy0 — Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:45:54 GMT

I'm trying to use:

x=prxchange('s/\(*[^)]\)//',1,x);

to remove text between two parens (including removing the parens) from a string. However, this isn't working completely. If the string is: "this is a test (hello world)", i'm getting "this is a test (hello world".

What's the right regex to use to accomplish this?

x=prxchange('s/\(.*\)//',1,x);
