Find text between text

Hello my question is how can I find text that is between other texts.
Like: My birthday is on the tenth of January.
Now I want my app to find wich text is between My birthday is on the and of January.
I think in PHP it will look like this or something: My birthday is on the (*+) of January.

Thanks,

If the text "My birthday is on the " and the text " of January." is fixed then you can use mid() to get the text.

What I'm going to be use it for is this:
I get the source code of a web page, in the webpage the text: Your production: 100 Lumber. is used. Now I want to get the production out of the webpage. the number can be 10,100,1000 etc. So I can't use get the 2/3/4 character in the between production and lumber.

Please tell me how to do this.

The blank within the text appears to be a delimiter that you can look for to isolate the number you are searching for:

Code:

---

Dim MyText As String, MySearch() As String
MyText = "Your production: 100 Lumber"
MySearch = Split(MyText, Chr$(32))
MsgBox MySearch(2)
