String question

Does Python(1.6) have built-in string functions for trimming or extracting
portion of strings?
I would like to do the following
(prototype)
text = "here is some text"
seek = "is"
start = string.find( text, seek )
theWord = text.grabxxxxx( start, len(seek ) )
Regards,
Dennis
P.S. I've read the online docs, and I've seen that it is possible if you
are taking a known value (i.e. theWord = text[100:]) ... simply stuck on
semantics.
