I’m making an application that keeps it’s data in a text file and I’m trying build in a find field. So, I set up a script for the field:

on returnInField
global tVar -- contains the text file
global itemNum -- a handler in the stack script uses this to display the current record
if me is empty then beep -- nothing to find
find the text of me in tVar
-- now I need to get the item number that the text was found in.


-- the script below does not work. I also tried “is within”--also doesn’t work.
set the itemDelimiter to "|"
repeat with i = 1 to the number of items in tVar
if i contains the foundText then
put i into itemNum
exit repeat
end if
end repeat


 put itemNum
goRecord

end returnInField

So...How do I determine which item my foundText is in?

Thanks!
