Interesting.

I always intuitively thought that the phrase

characters of

would return single characters regardless of the
current value of text item delimiters, while

text of

would return tokens separated by the current value of 
text item delimiters.

Apparently I was wrong...

André

set TargetString to (characters StartCount thru StringEnd of StringSource) as string

--better--> set TargetString to text StartCount thru StringEnd
