Matches a [http://www.regular-expressions.info/ regular expression] defined by '''Pattern''' in a [[AnsiString|string]] defined by '''Subject''' and returns the position of matched string in '''Subject'''. The pattern is defined literally and does not allow for the use of modifiers, it is case-sensitive. It is suggested you avoid using this function if you use SCAR Divi 3.25 or higher, a replacement for this function is available there as [[PregMatchEx]] which is far more flexible and powerful.
