    Description

    IndexOfName searches in the list of strings for a name-value pair with name part Name. If such a pair is found, it returns the index of the pair in the stringlist. If no such pair is found, the function returns -1. The search is done case-insensitive.

    Remark:

    1. Only the first occurrence of a matching name-value pair is returned.
    2. The returned position is zero-based, i.e. 0 indicates the first string in the list.
