Its three arguments are:

• Find_text    Required. The text you want to find.

• Within_text    Required. The text containing the text you want to find.

• Start_num    Optional. Specifies the character at which to start the search. The first character in within_text is character number 1. If you omit start_num, it is assumed to be 1.
