A second thought....
It looks like you might be thinking that you want to restrict the  
'hit' to the first item of each line in the field.

To do that you would need to do something like

set the itemdel to "|"
get cr & the clicktext & "|"
put  lineOffset( IT, (cr & field "storage"))

thus the match can only occur if the clicktext is exactly the first  
item of a line

Hope this helps,
