Yup.  It is called the two argument $LENGTH.

   $LENGTH(STRING,SUBSTRING) ; Returns the number of pieces
   ;  There is always at least 1 returned even when there is no occurrence
of the substring..

S X="THIS IS A TEST"
W $L(X,"^")
1
W $L(X," ")
4
W $L(X,"T")
4
W $L(X,"IS")
3

Is there a function that returns the number of pieces in a string?
