Fairly simply Text manipulation question...

[docmeizie]

Okay what I need to do is take a text box string and be able to rearrange the letters so that I can check it versus a data file that I have created with all the known words in the English dialect. So basically it would a string like "are" and come up with all the permutations of those three letters like so:

ae
ar
ea
er
ra
re
are
aer
rea
rae
ear
era

Would any one have some basic code/guidelines that I can use? Thank you in advance.



If I take a peek in your Windows, to fix a problem, does that make me a "Peeping Tom"? Hmmmmmmmmmmv

I don't have any code yet, but these commands may help if you don't already know them

Len(String) 'length of a string

Mid$(String, Start, Length) 'Returns a certain part of a string

StrComp(String1, String2) 'Compares 2 strings
