Answer / arunkumar vikram r k

Hi Amol, a small change in your script and the repeated characters can be printed or counted

Option Explicit
Dim getChar,strLen,ascChar(),CharCount,i,RepChar,getRes
getChar="VBSsccrript"
strLen=Len(getChar)
ReDim ascChar(strLen)

For i=1 to strLen
ascChar(i)=Mid(getChar,i,1)

Next
For i=1 to strLen
getRes=Split(getChar,ascChar(i),-1,1)
If ubound(getRes)=2 Then
RepChar=RepChar&" "&ascChar(i)
End If
Next
msgbox RepChar
