Using the field NUMWORDS in QuickParts Field
I'm taking a class in short fiction and one of the requirements is that the first page header include the story's word count. I tried inserting QuickParts Field NUMWORDS which gave me almost what I wanted. Problem is that the required number is NOT to include the story title and author's name which appear on the first page. How do I insert a number that is equal to NUMWORDS minus the word count for my title and name? I tried putting the number to subtract in the document properties then inserting Field Formula =NUMWORDS-6 but that didn't work. Can this be done so I don't have to change the heading every time I edit my document? -- The Islander |
