Thanks Herb Tyson. I'll gvie that a go. Would you know why some people say
you can't get an accurate word count using Word and you can't trust it
especially if you're submitting articles for magazines?

Yes. Insert tab, Quick Parts, Field, Category=All, Field name=DocProperty,
Property=Words.
Or... press Ctrl+F9, type "DOCPROPERTY Words" without the quotes, then press
F9.

Is it possible to insert a word count in the footer of a Word document
similar to inserting the date & time whenever a document is changed?
