Hi,

  What I'm attempting to do is find the first non-0 in the string of numbers.
The following code should, if I'm reading the help screen correctly, return 1
as the position and 1 as the length. But, for the life of me I can't get that
answer. It seems that the '^' modifier is disregarded.

  Any help out there?

TIA,
