I see you've already implemented something, but just for grins, here's my thought re: the One True Regex for this situation: AbsentChars is the name of a variable which contains all the letters that *aren't* on the board. My first attempt at the regex is… filter lines of WordList without "*[AbsentChars]*" However, that will remove all words that contain at least one letter in the specific character string "absentchars", which is not what I want. So, bring out the "do" keyword… do ("filter lines of WordList without" && quote & "*" & AbsentChars & "*" & quote) "Bewitched" + "Charlie's Angels" - Charlie = "At Arm's Length" Read the webcomic at [ http://www.atarmslength.net ]!
