there is a function : SubStringCount (text, sub_string)  that works good for me...

but i don't know if it's possible to make a cycle over a column (in script phase), in this case i could just make a sum of SubStringCount for each tab1.col1.

someone have a code snippet that could help me ?

thanks, Loris
