Compare text characters/text strings/captures' name (alphabetical letters)

Compare text characters/text strings/captures' name (alphabetical letters)

Compare text characters/text strings/captures' name (alphabetical letters)

(OP)
Hi All,

I am able to obtain names of the captures (ex: CHANGE INFO, CHANGE INFORMATION, CHANGE TEXT, INFO CHANGED, TEXT CHANGED...etc).
I just want to compare the capures' name with "CHANGE" only.

1) How could I do that?
2) Is there a syntax/command to compare two stream of texts?

Remember I only want to extract few characters from the captures' names that make up the word "CHANGE" in the captures' names only. Disregard all other characters in the names of the captures.

Also, the position of the word "CHANGE" in the name of captures may not be at the beginning of the text line. So, I need to extract and compare all characters in the captures' names that make up the word "CHANGE" with my own word "CHANGE" for looping through the captures.

Thank you for your help in advance

Quin
