Returns the number of characters found. FindNext returns
0 if no matching text is found and -1 if the DataWindow’s
presentation style is 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 |
integer li_charsfound |
|
1 |
li_charsfound = dw_1.Find(sle_search.Text, & |
|
1 |
true, true, false, true) |
A second button labeled Find Next would have a script
like this:
|
1 |
dw_1.<span>FindNext</span>() |
