When scripting, is there any way to use the "Find" command to simply count the number of occurrences of a particular hex string in a file?

I don't need to "SaveAllPos"; I just need to return a decimal value for how many times the string appears in the file.

I realize that I can do this with a loop by incrementing a variable by one every time it finds it, but I'm already inside of a loop and am unable to nest them.

Thanks!

You are not unable to nest loops if you move the inner loop to an external script and call that script with ExecuteScript.
