Answer / shobhit
Initialize the index and a variable to 1 before search.
SET IDX VAR-POS TO 1.
SEARCH TABLE VARYING VAR-POS
AT END DISPLAY "Not Found"
WHEN TABLE(IDX) = <SEARCH STRING>
MOVE VAR-POS TO RESULT-VAR
DISPLAY "FOUND AT POSITION" RESULT-VAR
END-SEARCH.
Now the position is available in the variable RESULT-VAR.
