Default

That's not possible with VBA, the reason being that VBA's idea of a sentence is non-grammatical. For example, consider the following:

Mr. Smith spent $1,234.56 at Dr. John's Grocery Store, to buy: 10.25kg of potatoes; 10kg of avocados; and 15.1kg of Mrs. Green's Mt. Pleasant macadamia nuts.

For you and me, that would count as one sentence; for VBA it counts as 5 sentences.
