If I have a list, say of names. And I want to count all the people named, say, Susie, but I don't care exactly how they spell it (ie, Susy, Susi, Susie all work.) how would I do this? Set up a regular expression inside the count? Is there a wildcard variable I can use? Here is the code for the non-fuzzy way: lstNames.count("Susie") Any ideas? Is this something you wouldn't expect count to do? Thanks y'all from a newbie. Ed
