ReFind multiple instances of a string

[Guest]

Can you use ReFind to find multiple instances of a string? I know I could use getOccuranceCount, but I'd rather just use ReFind.

thanks.

Not in a single statement, no. But you could use reMatch(). It has
limitations - it doesn't capture subexpressions - but it might be OK for
what you need.

Thanks Adam,

I think I found my solution. It's just not very elegant.

getOccuranceCount is a function that's out there that tells you how many times a string occurs. It's helpful, but I needed the string that it returned.
