Do this when you put the text into the field. If you do it by script 
then do it from there otherwise make a temp button and put it in there 
then delete the button later.

Find works: find string "beat must go on" in field "Quotes"
as well as 'is among' is 'not among'
as well as the offsets - lineoffset, itemoffset, wordoffset
