How do I locate a found string in a very large text field?

[tonvandelangkruis]

I have made a FMP database to keep my notes. Obviously, one of the fields (the text of the notes) contains very large texts per record.
If I want to search this field for a word, I get all the records that contain this word.

But since the text field is so large, I would need a way to search within the text field, to locate the searched word.
How can I do this?

Could there be a way to move the cursor to the position in the field where the string is found?

Have a look at the 'Position' function for finding out where the word is.
I'd love to see if anyone comes up with a method of moving the cursor there?!
I suspect you might be better off with a word processor unless you are doing some fancy indexing. Why FileMaker? Cheers,
