my seven-year-old daughter asked me to find out about selecting every three
letter word in a document

I have looked far and wide, under rocks and bath mats, on the Internet and
Microsoft web site.

I am desperate to find this, I made a promise, there has got to be a way,
somehow

so please can somebody help, I'm ready to jump out my window with frustration
