Given a list of letters,

letters = "A", "B", ..., "F" 

is it possible to get Mathematica to generate all ‘words’ (in this example, 6 letter words), if only one letter can be used one time only, e.g. ABCDEF, ABCDFE, …? TIA.

You can create permutations with all of the letters as strings with:

StringJoin /@ Permutations[letters]

If you want lists of the individual letters just use:

Permutations[letters]

Check the documentation of Permutations to learn about permutations with subsets of letters. If you want to use each letter more than once, look at the documentation for Tuples.

Pemutations will do it:

letters = "a", "b", "c";
Permutations[letters, 3]
"a", "b", "c", "a", "c", "b", "b", "a", "c", 
 "b", "c", "a", "c", "a", "b", "c", "b", "a"
