Returns the beginning numeric position of the first occurrence of a character expression or memo field within another character expression or memo field, without regard for the case of these two expressions.
ATCC(cSearchExpression, cExpressionSearched [, nOccurrence]) |
Parameters
- cSearchExpression
- Specifies the character expression that ATCC(В ) searches for in cExpressionSearched.
- cExpressionSearched
- Specifies the character expression cSearchExpression searches for. Both cSearchExpression and cExpressionSearched can be memo fields of any size.
- nOccurrence
- Specifies which occurrence (first, second, third, and so on) of cSearchExpression is searched for in cExpressionSearched. By default, ATCC(В ) searches for the first occurrence of cSearchExpression (nOccurrence = 1). Including nOccurrence lets you search for additional occurrences of cSearchExpression in cExpressionSearched.
Return Value
Numeric
Remarks
ATCC(В ) is designed for expressions containing double-byte characters. If the expression contains only single-byte characters, ATCC(В ) is equivalent to ATC(В ).
ATCC(В ) searches the second character expression for the occurrence of the first character expression, without concern for the case (upper or lower) of the characters in either expression. Use AT_C(В ) to perform a case-sensitive search.
ATCC(В ) returns an integer corresponding to the position where the first character of the character expression is found. If the character expression isn't found, ATCC(В ) returns 0.
This function is useful for manipulating double-byte character sets for languages such as Hiragana and Katakana.
