The following function might do the job for you, though I's sure there
must be a better way...
obj-find: func [series field value][
forall series [if series/1/:field = value [return index? series]]
none
]
s: reduce [
make object! [a: 10 b: "a"]
make object! [a: 20 b: "b"]
make object! [a: 30 b: "c"]
make object! [a: 40 b: "d"]
]
>> obj-find s 'a 20
== 2
>> obj-find s 'a 50
== none
>> obj-find s 'b "d"
== 4
