Try this maybe http://www.cflib.org/udf.cfm?ID=605
Use space for your delimiter maybe. -----Original Message----- From: Nomad [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2005 3:23 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Getting first 10 words from a string. Hello! Need help. How do I get the first (say 10) words from a string? Problem: A query to my database returns a column (details) that is of memo type. I want to limit the display of this column to the first 10 words only. I had a quick look at the CFML documentation for string functions but could not find any that works with words (not characters). I am obviously missing something. What is it? Thanks a lot.
