  Dim regEx, Match, Matches		' Create variable.

  regEx.Pattern = patrn			' Set pattern.
  regEx.IgnoreCase = True			' Set case insensitivity.
  regEx.Global = True			' Set global applicability.
  Set Matches = regEx.Execute(strng)	' Execute search.
  For Each Match in Matches		' Iterate Matches collection.
    RetStr = RetStr & "Match found at position "
    RetStr = RetStr & Match.FirstIndex & ". Match Value is '"
    RetStr = RetStr & Match.Value & "'." & vbCRLF
  Next
  RegExpTest = RetStr
End Function

MsgBox(RegExpTest("is.", "IS1 is2 IS3 is4"))
