Are you looking for its position in the string? This gives the first
position of the first pair in the string
=MIN(IF(MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)-1)),1)=MID(A1,ROW(INDIRECT("2:"&LEN
(A1))),1),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)-1))))
which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.
