I am trying to do that, basically My problem is to filter down all the extra spaces between characters. Like in a text file I could have a sequence like: "word1 word2 word3 word5 word6 word7 word8 word9" I have to remove all the extra spaces so that there would be only one space between each character and that would make it easy to collect each word individually to a different array which would contain the words as individual entities. The carriage returns are not a problem because I copied each line of the string content (which contains the whole file) to individual arrays. Now I just have to remove the extra space inside each line of the individual arrais, so that I can collect the words indivually for a different array. Any suggestion to remove such extra space would cool, I will try some sort of algorithm to see how it goes. thanks! -pedro > > Mickey M. > Construction Partner Inc. > http://www.constructionpartner.com > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?
