Thanks Julio,

good idea! - but: isn't this a bit too much? After all, you have to instantiate a string[] for it each time, even though you don't see it. Or am I wrong? At least when it has to be called many times (for a table like in my case).

Regards
Rolf

Hi Rolf:

"how many times does ......"
Maybe this may be worth this:

count=split(mystring,chr$(10)).count

Hi folks,

Somehow I don't remember this - wasn't there a function to count the
number of substrings occuring within a string?

For instance, how many times does myString contain chr$(10) (to count the
number of linefeeds). So it would be a blend of Instr() and String$().

Thanks for your input!

Regards
Rolf
