texte = >Heh Grant, thanks for the [countChars] feature? How about [countWords]?If you're OK with US-English only, where a word is a sequence of letters A-Z,a-z and everything else is ignored, then it's pretty straightforward. It just gets tough when we start doing international, 2-byte, etc.I think the best way to handle all these special requests (because as soon as we add word-counting, someone's going to want [WordList]) is to stick GREP in there so you can define your own ways of peeling out what's interesting to you.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
