Hello,

Example 
: Search for all occurrences of the string "now" in a string literal. The offsets 11 and 24 of both found locations are displayed as output. 
DATA: patt       TYPE string VALUE `now`, 
      text       TYPE string, 
      result_tab TYPE match_result_tab. 
FIELD-SYMBOLS <match> LIKE LINE OF result_tab. 
FIND ALL OCCURRENCES OF patt IN 
     `Everybody knows this is nowhere` 
     RESULTS result_tab. 
LOOP AT result_tab ASSIGNING <match>. 
  WRITE: / <match>-offset, <match>-length. 
ENDLOOP. 

Regards.
