One other option, with a caveat- if each column only has one word in it 
(i.e. no white space or punctuation or else enclosed in quotes), you 
could count the number of words, which will respect any kind of white 
space delimiter as a word break.

Else, I would go with Mark's suggestion:

put fld "xxx" into tData
replace cr with tab&cr in tData
put (the number of items in tData)
