Well, but: nn: "But this is a book; this is yet another book, and finally, this is a book" a: "book" insert a " " append a " " find nn a == none So you probably shouldn't add spaces, but parse with a charset! that's the complement of all letters that may constitute a word. And finally check if the string starts or ends with the word you're looking for. ~H Pr�tera censeo Carthaginem esse delendam -- To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" in the subject, without the quotes.
