Subject: How to copy string from in a file from some string onward?

All-

I'd appreciate your help on this one:

Please advise as to how I can copy a substring X from string Y starting with string Z through the end of string Y.

For example, supposing I have these strings:

Y = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs back."
Z = "jumped"

I need a routine that will assign to string X the value

"jumped over the lazy dogs back."

I'll be putting this code in a script that will process several string Ys consecutively, where string Z is known to occur in each string Y.

Thanks!
