I create policies using Word 2003. I would like to be able to count each word
in the entire policy and use the top ten words (ignoring words such as I,
the, in, etc.) as keywords. Is there anyway to do this?

Here's a macro that will count the frequency of the words in a document to
allow you to determine the top 10 most frequently used words:

Dim Found As Boolean 'Temporary flag
Dim j, k, l, Temp As Integer 'Temporary variables
Dim tword As String '



' Set up excluded words

Hi Doug,

I apologize in advance for hijacking this thread - sorry!

I am working on a similar project, as I need to count word frequency in a
document. That being said, I am relatively new to macros and VBA.

I copied and pasted in the code into a module and there where numerous
syntax errors (lines of code in red font). I must be doing something wrong.

Any assistance would be appreciated...thanks in advance,
george

Newsgroup posting forces a limited line length, and that causes long code
lines to be broken by a carriage return. When you copy/paste the code, VBA
sees the broken lines as syntax errors.

Wherever you see a line that starts at the left margin, and that line or the
next line is red, you need to delete the carriage return that causes the
line to break. For example, these two lines should be only one line:

If SingleWord "A" Or SingleWord "z" Then SingleWord
= "" 'Out of range?

Jay,

I appreciate that piece of info. I am too much of a noob to figure that out

I will fix the code and try again.

Thanks again,

I create policies using Word 2003. I would like to be able to count
each word
in the entire policy and use the top ten words (ignoring words such
as I, the, in, etc.) as keywords. Is there anyway to do this?

I've went at the problem a little differently, I also tried to remove common
contractions, possesives, etc.

'
' WordFrequencyCount
' Creates a list of all the words (and their frequency) in the active document
' and presents the words & frequencies in a new document.
' It attempts to remove common contractions, possesives, numbers and
punctuation.

Dim sExcludeList As String
Dim bFrequencyThreshold As Byte
'
' The variable bFrequencyThreshold is the minimum frequency needed
' to have the word & frequency count reported. The value of 1 (or 0)
' reports every word counted. The value of 5 omits all words
' with a frequency less than 5. (A higher number allows the macro
' to run faster, since fewer items are added to the table.)
