Dear Statalisters,

Probably this question came up many times, but I can not -findit-.
How do I search for a "string value" in one vector of string observations? 
For example search for "bank" in the "company name" variable, so that I will get
all entries that contain the value "bank".

many thanks in advance
Dimitris Christodoulou
