Verify if substring is found in string
Hi,
I'm new to HP-UNIX programming(previously using C++). I am looking for an IF statement which would return TRUE if a substring is found in a string.
For example, if 'header' is found in 'header_cp', the IF statement will result to true.
Would appreciate any help...

DESCRIPTION
The memmem() function finds the start of the first occurrence of the substring needle of length needlelen in the memory area haystack of
