 NAME
     INSTR -- Searches for a substring
 
 ABBREVIATION
     in <shift> S

 SYNOPSIS
     INSTR(<string_1>,<string_2>[,<start_pos>])

 FUNCTION
     Returns position of string <string_2> in string <string_1> at or after 
     the starting-position (<start_pos>). The starting-position defaults to 
     the beginning of string <string_2>. If no match is found, a value of 0 
     is returned.
 
 INPUTS
     <string_1>  - string to be searched
     <string_2>  - string to search
     <start_pos> - position where searching should start
 
 RESULT
     Returns position of the second string in the first string (numeric). If 
     the string was not found, returns 0.

 EXAMPLES
     PRINT INSTR("THE CAT IN THE HAT","CAT")
         The result is 5, because CAT starts at the fifth character in the 
         first string.
