Hi all. How can I search for a letter into a word in flash. Example:  
search: asd words: check, example, asdqwerty  
found word: asdqwerty  
Or something like this. I have some words in array and I want to be able to search in them 🙂  
In other program languages there are %var% , but I can’t find their equivalent in flash.
