How do I count the lines with characters only?
I need to count the lines in a document without the blank lines being counted
as well. It seems that it counts the lines if you "enter" down to skip a space and then continue typing. For example: Dear John: I am having difficulty. Sincerely, Sue This would count 7 lines instead of 4! |

It would be much easier if the document was formatted properly and was set
for double spacing as opposed to hitting the Enter key twice. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Shannon" wrote in message ...
