Type everything except the number itself. For that, type NUMWORDS, then
select that word and press Ctrl+F9 to convert it to a field and F9 to update. -- Suzanne S.

There's a Word Count button on the Review tab, but it's much more
satisfactory to right-click on the status bar and add Word Count as one of the buttons there. It will automatically display the word count of the entire document or a selection, and you can click on it to get the character count and other statistics. -- Suzanne S.

I have one machine that refuses to show Word Count in the status bar. I go to
Review and click the 123 button, and it will show Page 2 of 2, but not the word count. Then, next time I start Word I have to do that again. How do I get it to show the Word Count on the status bar, and how do I get it to stay there so next time I start Word it comes up again? Thanks! "digitig" wrote: "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Live word count is on the status bar. But only sometimes updates. Specifically, if you select part of a text the live word count /should/ show the number of words in the selected portion before the number of words in the whole text. Sometimes it does, and that's great. Sometimes it doesn't, which sucks. In my latest college assignment there are blocks of plain text for which, if I select them, the live word count will show the word count for the selection. There there are other blocks of plain text for which, if I select them, the live word count will continue to display only the total for the document and I have to go to the word count button on the review tab to get the count. So I'm afraid I'm at least partly with "Joe in Durango, CO". Word count in the status bar would be a great feature if it worked consistently. It doesn't, so it's a real nuisance that the version that /does/ work is so hard to find. |

Word2007? Right-click on the status bar and turn on Word Count. (And
whichever of the other availabilities would be convenient for you.) On Nov 2, 9:15*am, Margaret wrote: I have one machine that refuses to show Word Count in the status bar.
