RichEdit and findText

Its late so I hope someone can supply the answer to my stupid question 
while I sleep!!
  I have a RichEdit in which I'm doing a findText. The findText works 
fine when searching for a single character, but fails to find it if I am
searching for more than one character..

i.e in the RichEdit I have "7028"

This works fine:-
  fnd = findText ( RE, "7", {0,-1}, findDown)
so does this
  fnd = findText ( RE, "0", {0,-1}, findDown)
but..
  fnd = findText ( RE, "7028", {0,-1}, findDown)
returns 0
 Adding the findWholeWord flag also makes no difference..

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong but I can't see what.. Help!
