However, there is a possible workaround.

define var = section (x) of [y] on [z]
set [start v] to [1]
set [part v] to [1]
set [length v] to (length of (y))
set [str v] to []
repeat until <(start) > (length)>
set [char v] to (letter (start) of (y))
if <(char) = (z)> then
if <(part) = (x)> then
set [var v] to (str)
stop [this script v]
end
change [part v] by (1)
set [str v] to []
else
set [str v] to (join (str)(char))
end
end

Then you can get the result from the variable “var”.

that is an extremely complex workaround

define var = section (x) of [y] on [z]
set [start v] to [1]
set [part v] to [1]
set [length v] to (length of (y))
set [str v] to []
repeat until <(start) > (length)>
set [char v] to (letter (start) of (y))
if <(char) = (z)> then
if <(part) = (x)> then
set [var v] to (str)
stop [this script v]
end
change [part v] by (1)
set [str v] to []
else
set [str v] to (join (str)(char))
end
change [start v] by (1)
end
