Missing an "of" in the two lines above:
put line textLine *of* $TEKST into line cookedLine of fld "COOKED" etc
Don't know if that's the problem.

Your script logic seems unnecessarily complex. Since it looks as if only the
last occurrence is ending up in the output field, instead of using a counter to
keep track of the next line in the field, you could just
put cr & line textLine of $TEKST after fld "COOKED"
But once again, loading a line into a field repeatedly will be much slower than
putting it into a variable in the repeat loop and then putting the variable
into the field just once when the repeat is done. Getting or putting something
from or into a field is much slower than doing the same in a variable, so just
do it once.
Also, I can see no reason to be loading your data into system variables, which is what
"$WERBS" etc is defining. The only reason to put something into a variable beginning with
"$" is if you want some other system process besides LC to be able to access the data.

Well, as per your suggestion I did this:
on mouseUp
put 1 into textLine
put fld "WERBS" into WERBS
put fld "TEKST" into TEKST
repeat until line textLine of TEKST contains "finalSolution666"
put textLine into fld "KOUNT"
put 1 into verbLine
repeat until line verbLine of WERBS is empty
put line textLine of TEKST into fld "LYNE"
put line verbLine of WERBS into WERB
put "were" && WERB into FRAZE
put FRAZE into fld "FRAZE"
if line textLine of TEKST contains FRAZE then
if fld "COOKED" is empty then
put line textLine of TEKST after fld "COOKED"
-- this is here so that line 1 of fld "COOKED" does not
end up empty
else
put cr & line textLine of TEKST after fld "COOKED"
end if
end if
add 1 to verbLine
end repeat
add 1 to textLine
end repeat
end mouseUp
but still get only the last value.
Richmond.
