How many words from start of text to my selection

[Mark Schonewille]

This tells you the number of the selected word:

on mouseUp
    put the selectedChunk into myChunk
    put word 4 of myChunk into myChunk
    put the number of words of char 1 to myChunk of fld 1
    send "select word" && myChunk && "of fld 1" to me in 0 millisecs
end mouseUp

Kind regards,

Mark Schonewille
