Count individual word repition
I would really like to be able to highlight a word in a large document and
find out how many times I have repeated that particular word. Anyone know if this is possible, without doing some replacement 'replace' routine? |

Count individual word repition
In the Find dialog, check the box for "Highlight all items found" and then
click Find All. Word will select (highlight) all the occurrences and tell you how many there are. -- Suzanne S.

Count individual word repition
Thank you Suzanne. I had to fiddle with it a bit (probably because I am
using Office 2007), but it works great. Just what I needed, and so simple when you know how! As an author this will save me a great deal of work, very many thanks once again. "Suzanne S.

Count individual word repition
Glad I could help. That option, when it was added a couple of versions back,
was completely unheralded, and I don't suppose I would ever have discovered it if someone here hadn't mentioned it. It's one of the lesser-known and underappreciated Word features. -- Suzanne S.
