foundLinethe foundLine
Value returned: a line expression equal to the line of a field where the most recent find command located its target string. If nothing was found, it returns empty . The line expression has the following form: line i of card field n line i of bkgnd field n
where i is the line number and n is the number of the field. Note: A return character determines a line, not the line wrap. A line that wraps and is displayed as two lines is treated as one line by HyperTalk.
