This is the function I've been working on.

public function toWords():void{
     var str:String = myRTA.text;
     var pattern:RegExp = /\b[A-Za-z0-9'-]+\b/gi;
     var result:Array = pattern.exec(str);
        while (result != null) {
             trace (result.index, result);
             result = pattern.exec(str);
        }
     myDGrid.dataProvider = result;
}

It's close to what I need, but I have two problems.

1) I can't figure out how to modify this to pick up the first word in 
the string, if the word is at position 0. I've tried several 
modifications to (result != null), with no luck.

2) I can't seem to assign the "result" array to a DataGrid, tree, etc.
