// Purpose: Find a substring in a string starting from any position in the string.
// Params: SubStr - a substring for search.
// S - the source string to search within
// StartPos - the index position to start the search.
// Result: Integer - the position of the substring,
// zero - if the substring was not found
// Remarks: This is the original Delphi "Pos" function modified to support
// the start pos parameter.
