Working with grouped text

[Dan Friedman]

Ok... I could use a little help...

I have a field with grouped text such as:

This is [a test], [a quiz] or [a puzzle].

The text in "[]"s are grouped.  When the user clicks one of the grouped
phrases, I underline the group.  This is no problem:

if "link" is in the textStyle of the clickChunk then
   if "underline" is in the textStyle of the clickChunk then
       set the textStyle of the clickChunk to link
   else
       set the textStyle of the clickChunk to underline,link
   end if
end if


My problem is when done, I want to examine the field and make a list of what
they underlined.  However, I want the list to be numbers.  For example, if
they click (that is underline) "a test" and "a puzzle", then I want "1,3"
(they underlined the first and third set of grouped text).  If they only
click "a quiz", then I want "2" (they only selected the second set of
grouped text).

Anyone have any ideas?


Thanks in advance!
