It is not worth reporting the bugs here - you need to feedback to the
appropriate beta test forum. However the failure to count selected words in
a table was not peculiar to Word 2007. It is the same in Word 2003 also.
Whether this is a bug or a design limitation I am unable to say.

There are lots of bugs in Word 2010 from previous versions. For
example, if you select part of a table and get the word count, the
word count for the entire document is returned. This is a bug
introduced in Word 2007.
Is it worth reporting these bugs? I have spent hours documenting and
sending in reports, but nothing gets fixed.
They really slow down my productivity, but it seems Microsoft isn't
interested in fixing them, so perhaps "beta testing" is just a waste
of time.
