Hi Lane,
Currently we do not have a function built into our formulas to find the index of a string. There are some work arounds using the Left() and Right() functions or Part() off of a recognize-able pattern that can chain together but they can get lengthy. I think a function to help count the occurrence of a string would make a great suggestion and our product development team uses our User Voice page to track user support for future features and enhancements. The Quick Base User voice can most easily be accessed from the My Apps page in Quick Base by clicking on the orange Feedback tab that appears on the right of the page or at http://quickbase.uservoice.com by signing in with your Quick Base credentials.
I usually suggest if someone from the Community adds a User Voice request that they post a link to it here. That way any other Community users that come across this post will be able to add their vote as well and show support. Thank you very much for your time today Lane.
