If i had:
strName = "Sam"

Is there a function where it would separate strName into all possibilities using periods, for example:

Sam
S.am
Sa.m
S.a.m

Thanks in advance

sure, you can always create it as a

public function periods(str1 as string) as string
dim array() as string
(...)
periods = array
end function

Use Mid$ to cut the string, and think how would you do it. Notice that you'll have 2^(n-1) posibilities, where n is the number of letters in your word, so

redim array (1 to 2^(len(str1)-1))

woudl be useful.

I know what to do, just not how to do it. Could you make a function for me?
