An alternative approach:
Assuming that the phrase "now is the time, for all good men" is in fld 1,
then this button script....
on mouseUp
put findWord(fld 1,"time")
end mouseUp
function findWord pContent,pStr
if pStr is among the tokens of pContent then
return num of words of char 1 to offset(pStr,pContent) of pContent
else return 0
end findWord
reurns 4 as expected. Similarly for 'time-bomb' and other variants.
