What about skipping the re and try this:

I would like to create a regular expression in which i can match the "|"
special character too.
e.g.
start=|ID=ter54rt543d|SID=ter54rt543d|end=|
I want to only |ID=ter54rt543d| from the above string but i am unable to write the
pattern match containing "|" pipe too.
By default python treat "|" as an OR operator.
But in my case I want to use to as a part of search string.

Hi,
you can just escpape the pipe with backlash like any other metacharacter:
r"start=\|ID=ter54rt543d"
be sure to use the raw string notation r"...", or you can double all
backslashes in the string.
hth,
vbr
Thanks for the response.
I got the answer finally.
This is the regular expression to be
used:\\|ID=[a-z]*[0-9]*[a-z]*[0-9]*[a-z]*\\|
