Jacqi, forgive me for questioning/doubting you, but I really have

I wrote in HC over a period of nearly 20 years. I just don't remember
having to strip commas from words when parsing and sorting text. If
you say so, but why would Jim have had to point that out if it is the
"normal" way of doing things? I guess the mind IS the "first" thing
to go. (smile)
It's easy to test. Put this in the message box in any version of Rev or
MC, as early as you have versions for them:
get "However, this is an example."
put word 1 of it && last word of it
You should see:
However, example.
I think Jim pointed it out because the OP was new to LiveCode and the
behavior isn't intuitive. If you can still run HC, you can test it there
too.
