Hello

I am trying to find the percentages on how many words start with each letter
of the english language. Something along the lines of
    A - 5.34%
    B- 6.52%

I can find percentages on the distribution of all letters in the english
language but not on starting letters.

I am designing a new chart of accounts and would like to leave appropriate
spaces for accounts as yet uncreated but so I can insert them in
alphabetical order.

Can anyone suggest a website that might assist.

Thanks

Sam Benson
