This really has nothing to do with Word, since that's not the application you're using to view the file. Furthermore, the problem with what you're trying to do is that the colouring is applied by the software you're using - it's not present in the file itself. If you were to open the file in Word, for example, you'd see no colouring. That said, all is not lost. If you look at the image you've posted, you'll see that all the black text is between <value> & </value> tags. If you open the file in Word and do a wildcard Find, where:
Find = \<value\>*\</value\>
and use the 'Reading Highlight' find option, Word will tell you how many such strings there are.
