Word counter crashing LiveCode?

[Alex Tweedly]

Not sure why yours is crashing, and I admit I haven't really looked 
closely :-)

I have a similar word count - so I tweaked it slightly :

  - stack with 3 fields - NoiseWords, Source and outputs results to "F"

  - button to make it run

*on*mouseUp*
    local*tSource, tNoise, tWord*s
**local*tANoise, tAWords
*put*thetextoffld"fSource"intotSource
*put*thetextoffld"fNoise"intotNoise*
    repeat* foreachwordW intNoise
*put*trueintotANoise[W]*
    end* *repeat*

*repeat* foreachwordW intSource*
        if* tANoise[W] *then* *next* *repeat**
       add*1totAWords[W]*
    end* *repeat*

*repeat* foreachkeyK intAWords*
       put*K && tAWords[K] &CRafterfld"F"*
   end* *repeat*

*end*mouseUp
