/*  $DOC$
 *  $FUNCNAME$
 *     FT_FINDITH()
 *  $CATEGORY$
 *     String
 *  $ONELINER$
 *     Find the "ith" occurrence of a substring within a string
 *  $SYNTAX$
 *     FT_FINDITH( <cCheckFor>, <cCheckIn>, <nWhichOccurrence> ;
 *                 [, <lIgnoreCase> ] ) -> <nStringPosition>
 *  $ARGUMENTS$
 *     <cCheckFor> is the string to search for.
 *
 *     <cCheckIn> is the string to search.
 *
 *     <nWhichOccurrence> is the number of the occurrence to find.
 *
 *     <lIgnoreCase> is a logical indicating if the search is to be case
 *        sensitive.  The default is no case sensitivity (.F.).
 *  $RETURNS$
 *     The position in the string cCheckIn of the ith occurrence of cCheckFor.
 *  $DESCRIPTION$
 *     This function finds the position in a string of the "ith" time another
 *     string appears in it.
 *  $EXAMPLES$
 *     // Find the Position in cMemoString of
 *     // the 10th Occurrence of "the", case
 *     // insensitive
 *
 *     nNextPosition := FT_FINDITH("the", cMemoString, 10)
 *  $SEEALSO$
 *     FT_AT2()
 *  $END$
