    Thank you very much man
    but i noticed that it only find the position of the first occurrence of the underline word
    that means if a string have more than one underline word it should specify the position of all occurences positions separated by comma in B

    Re: find the position of an underline word in string.

    salam Bro
    when applying the code to the whole data there were some cells without data in, and some with errors in calculating info for wordID,
    you can find data in http://www.Almutadaber.com/excel.xlsx
    there are 4 sheets.
    kindly note that data to be calculated is in column B and your procedure should fill data in column D
    also kindly note that this is a Quran project so data should be 100% accurate.
    I appreciate if you can help me in this.

    Thanks
