Public Function LineBeginsWith( _
      ByVal vLine As Variant _

    ) As Variant

vLine: The string whose beginning is checked to see if it matches string vFind. Function returns Null if vLine is Null or cannot be fixed up to a String.

vFind: The string which is to be searched for at the beginning of string vLine. Function returns Null if vFind is Null or cannot be fixed up to a String.
