What function can I use to find the position of a particular character in a text string? For example, if I search for "a" in the word "cat", the return value is 2. If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know. Thanks!
 
I = instr("Cat","a") To object or not to object
That is the question
Alast poor varible I new you well
