Dear List, Thanks for your supportive remarks and comments of my script the other day. After getting a book to read, I 'm aware of the mistakes made and there's a lot more to learn to write better codes. I have something to discuss based on the scripts used to find the no. matching words in a text: 1. What should I do , if I want to read each line of text with the "search word". Should I put the occurence of search word in an array ? (I'm not so sure). 2. If I want to read the string, provided only a certain length (for e.g., 5 words to the LEFT of "search word" & 5 words to the RIGHT of "search word"). Is there a range to declare but how to detect the starting point and end point for each occurence? Pls help me on this, I working on this school project alone and I 'm stuck without anyone's help. Thanks in advance. Rgds, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
