Returning characters in a string

[e2e4au 0]

I am having trouble finding a solution. I need to find "(" ")" within a string and return what ever is placed in between the parenthesis

Thanks in advance

something along this line

$string = "this is a test (this is only a test), and only another test"
$start = StringInStr($string,"(") + 1
$end = StringInStr($string,")")
$result = StringMid($string, $start , $end - $start)
MsgBox(0,"Result",$result)

I must have looked through the String function list a dozen times and missed that

StringInStr - Many thanks.
