texte = Hi I have a little problem with something and my brain isn't working so any pointers or hints would be good. Basically I need to split a large text variable into 2 new variables, the first 50 or so words into [var1] and then the rest into [var2] It can't be just a set number of chars it must be to the nearest complete word, and the second var must carry on from that point etc. Hope this is clear, any help would be much appreciated.
