Odd word counting behavior in Word tables
(Using Word 2002 in Office XP. All updates etc in place.)
I just discovered that you can count the words in a single cell in a table if you highlight just the words but if you highlight the whole cell or more than one cell, Word counts all the words in the document, not just the ones in the highlighted cells or even the table. -- Bob http://www.kanyak.com |

Hi Bob
Yes, it's a known problem, and not the only problem with counting words in tables. Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly. Microsoft MVP. http://www.shaunakelly.com/word "Opinicus" wrote in message ...
