You say "... containing A-Z"

Are you really using unicode ? Or is it really just ASCII ?

if so, you could do

   put char 1 of tWord into temp
   if 65 <= temp AND temp <= 90 then ...

Folks,
What is the most efficient way to search for trueWords starting with a capital 
letter?

Is there anything more direct than something like...

repeat for each true word tWord in tContainer

        If char 1 of tWord is among the codePoints of tUnicodeLetters // a 
variable containing A-Z
        then put tWord into tCapitalised

end repeat

Thanks & regards,
Keith
