Thank you - I'm retired so, this is a recreation project with no deadline. I have separated a dictionary table into a word count, and nine word types. (Noun, pronoun etc)
I have an application that counts words and, based on each words count (descending), need to put each word in its type column with the most used word, for each type at the top.
I ain't skeert of nuttin eh?
Yikes! What was that?
