<section begin="desc" />Word number of first occurrence of word in phrase<section end="desc" />
Most Sirius $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. The OO equivalent for the $Windex function is the PositionOf (String function) or PositionIn (String function).
This function finds the first occurrence of a word in a phrase.
The $Windex function accepts three arguments and returns a numeric result that is the word number in the first argument string of the the second argument word.
The first argument is an arbitrary string.
The second argument is word that is to be located in the first argument. If the second argument string is not found, $Windex returns a 0.
The third argument is a delimiter that separates words in the first argument string. This is an optional argument and defaults to blank.
Syntax
<section begin="syntax" /> %NUM = $Windex(string, word, delim) <section end="syntax" />
$Windex Function
%NUM is either a word number or 0.
For example, this statement sets %JUNK to 3:
%JUNK = $Windex('BOB CAROL TED ALICE', 'TED')
This statement sets %JUNK to 0:
%JUNK = $Windex('BOB CAROL TED ALICE', 'ROGER')
This statement sets %JUNK to 2:
%JUNK = $Windex('A WORD/OR TWO/BEFORE/I/GO', 'OR TWO', '/')
