However... you're pulling a fast one here. You're getting away with calling something a boolean when it actually isn't. Apparently Transcript is letting you get away with this. "if tSymbolArray[char 1 to 2 of tWord] then" should really be "if tSymbolArray[char 1 to 2 of tWord] is not empty then" Making the change slows things down on my machine from 14 milliseconds to 18 milliseconds, making it about 30% slower, but still much faster than anything I could do with repeat loops. -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
