Not sure I understand.

The clickCharChunk only returns the position of the character clicked 
whereas the clickText returns the word, or in case of linked text, the 
WORDS clicked on.

So, it makes it really easy to contstruct switch statements, as all you 
need to check for is the entire group of words in the linkedText.

The code below, when inserted in the script of a locked field, works 
fine (at least on WinXP, and I assume on Mac OSX).
