Description

Syntax

foundIt = FindTextString ( findThis, row, col )

 

Parameters

foundIt (Boolean)

findThis As String

The string to search for.

 

row As Long

Will hold the row where the string was found.

 

col As Long

Remarks

This function searches for a given string in the output window. The search starts at the current print position in the output window and proceeds toward the top of the output window.  The search stops at the first instance of a match. The search is case sensitive and the entire string in the cell must match. If the string is found the function returns True and sets row and col to be the coordinates of the cell that contains the string. If the string is not found the function returns False and sets row and col to 0.
