Martin,

You don't need any indexes, use characters.itemByRange( char1, char2 ) instead, like this:

commas = myPar.search( ',' )
return myPar.characters.itemByRange( myPar.characters[0], commas[1] ).contents.join()

(characters.itemByRange( myPar.characters[0], commas[1] ).contents returns an array of characters, so use join() to create string.)

Peter
