Okay, i'm learning mxTextTools on top of the dozen other things i'm doing at
once, at the moment, and have two questions:

With the commands that deal with 'sets', i'm assuming they're talking about
sets returned via the 'set()' function and its similar friends? But what
exactly IS a character set? Why use one instead of a string?

Secondly, 'sWordStart' -- I don't get the description of what it does. It
says it uses a Search Object to perform the required action, which is
fater.. but zero matching characters are allowed.. So, it only passes if
there is NOT a match?

Thanks
