Word Length

[slyvsspy]

How would I go about trying to find the number of letters of a word. In my database I have 900,000 words. I split each word into it's own letters using "MID(theword,2,1)". I have 24 fields. Letter1, Letter2, Letter3, and so on.

What could I use to send the number of letters to a text box on my form.?

Thanks,

A word or a Word document?

How about the Len function?

Len(theword)

RV

THats IT!

I searched the whole help menu trying to find the function to do that. Never thought it would be titled "LEN"

Thanks,
