The latter will blow up (dereference NULL) if S[Sptr] is not in the
string s. I don't know whether that's an issue in your application.
char *sloc;
sloc = strchr(s, S[Sptr]);
if (sloc)
S[Sptr] = sloc + 1; /* N.B. add 1 after comparing to 0 */
Also, the new code doesn't use Max or Limit. Is that an issue?
If you want to use Max, use strnchr().
... strnchr(s, Max, S[Sptr]) ...
