Maybe simply this?

-- Welcome to Director --
listOfStrings = ["Use", "getOne", "to find", "an item", "in a list"]

myItem = "to find"

indexOfMyItemInTheList = listOfStrings.getOne(myItem ) -- returns 0 if the item is not 
there

put indexOfMyItemInTheList
-- 3

See getOne()and getPos() in Manuals or Help for details.
