In this case, we're counting delimiters - not items, so it I'm sure it should be the number of items -1, unless we have a trailing delimiter, when the item count and delimiter count are the same, hence the need for "& null" or testing the last char. This is how it seems to work on my setup

Jim's solution seems the best, but if the data is big, then the 'number of items in (textStr & null)' seems to slow things down - I guess that textStr is being copied with the null char appended, and if it's big, that's a lot of work. I think it's therefore more efficient to test for char -

How is the speed on the script you are using? Like, if you use this script on a string of several megabytes, how long does it take to get a result? Since you are testing for a number of possible different characters, you are going to have to use a repeat for each char loop - I think. ___
