John,

for a specific work area, ie not 0 (note that use ... in 09 would fail)

function do_it()
	
	local RegExp, Match, s, i
	RegExp=  CreateObject('VBScript.RegExp')
	RegExp.IgnoreCase = TRUE
	RegExp.Global = TRUE
	
	RegExp.Pattern = "use\s+.+\s+in\s+[1-9]\d*"
	
	s = [use  ('ppp') in 24]
	
	Match = RegExp.Execute(s)
	
	do case
	case empty(Match.Count)
		&& nothing
	
	otherwise
		for i = 0 to Match.Count-1
			? Match.Item[i].Value
		endfor
	endcase

endfunc
