How do I count the number of repetitive words?
Is there a way I can pick a particular word to look for? |

Count repetitive words
Well you can use find and replace to find the word and replace it with the
same word. You can also use an Add-In that I created to do this sort of thing: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Word_Frequency.htm -- Greg Maxey/Word MVP See: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tips.htm For some helpful tips using Word.

Greg,

Count repetitive words
Well that gets pretty gnarly ;-)
You could revise the code as follows: Change: SingleWord = Trim(LCase(aWord)) To: SingleWord = Trim(aWord) Change: If SingleWord "a" Or SingleWord "z" Then SingleWord = "" 'Out of range? NonWordObjects = NonWordObjects + 1 ' End If To: If SingleWord "A" Or SingleWord "z" Or Asc(SingleWord) 90 And Asc(SingleWord) 97 Then '= "[" Or SingleWord = "]" Then SingleWord = "" 'Out of range? NonWordObjects = NonWordObjects + 1 ' End If But that would count "it" "IT" and "It" as three separatar words. I haven't taken the time to figure out how to process the first word of a sentence or how they should be counted. They are all in fact the same word ;-) -- Greg Maxey/Word MVP See: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tips.htm For some helpful tips using Word. "itgreenwich" wrote in message ... Greg, Great tool!

Count repetitive words
Greg,
LOL! That sounds like me doing a macro and well I am not good at that. IT as in Information Technology and it are different words. Especially in a CV! Thanks for your help though.

Count repetitive words
You can use Find for this. In the Find dialog, check the box for "Match
Case." Then select "Highlight all items found" and click Find All. Word will tell you how many it found (and they will be selected). -- Suzanne S.
