Returns the number of characters found. FindNext returns 0 if no

not RichTextEdit or an error occurs.

Examples
This example searches the DataWindow control dw_1 for text the user
specifies in the SingleLineEdit sle_search. The search proceeds forward
from the cursor position, is case-insensitive, and is not limited to whole
words:
|
1 2 3 |
integer li_charsfound li_charsfound = dw_1.Find(sle_search.Text, & true, true, false, true) |
A second button labeled Find Next would have a script like
this:
|
1 |
dw_1.FindNext() |
