Y'all catch dis heeyah?  Richard Kreiss been jivin' 'bout like:

When did INSTR stop working for multiple character strings?

4.0  INSTR(n,m,s)       Look for field "m" in field "n" starting
                        at position "s" returns starting location in "n";
                        "s" is optional. (defaults to 1)

Note "field" not "character".

I've used it for multiple character searches in 5.0.10 as recently as this
last fall.  Works fine.
