LiveCode Forums.

I have found a way to get extracted text with a beginning word and ending word, and was thinking would there be a direct function to make it in a more elegant way. Instead of finding, parsing foundChunk and using char selection.

Also what I found was that finding in a variable would not always work, one needs to use a (field) container. It is a question of several pages of text.

Any ideas?

Not sure what you mean when you say you cannot find "in a variable". Certainly you can.

If you post your script, I or any one of about sixty respondents will be able to help you implement it as a function.
