Porgramme to Solve the words in a set of jumbled Alphabets

Updated on May 3, 2012

programme to get valid words from jumbled letters

I had created this program while playing text games on BING so that I can quickly solve puzzles and earn points... lost the lust after sometime. But searched a lot on Internet at that time and did not find it. I found that hub users may be interested....

take it into word VBA macro and run "my trained script"

provide the jumbled letters from Bing text game...

It would generate all valid combinations for 3,4, 5, 6 and 7 letter words and write on the page. solve your text puzzles fast... Did not get time to clean.. but it works.. the more letter you give and more time it takes... try up to 7 letters.. it takes about 30 - 50 seconds.

enjoy!
