Hi Geoff,

I don't know in which version it was broken, but currently if you perform a 
FindString with S_PRIOR, you will always stay on the first text it will 
find. So once on that text, the next FindString S_PRIOR stays on that same 
text. You will have to move the cursor one character to the left, so just in 
front of that text, to find the previous occurrence.

They fixed it for the next update so that you will always find the previous 
occurrence. But if you perform a FindString with S_PRIOR when the cursor is 
within the text you are looking for, but not on the first character, it will 
first jump to the first character of that text. That is correct because 
FindString puts you always on the first character of the text you are 
looking for. And it is the same functionallity as all the other Prior 
functions.

Cheers,

Raymond
