Default Count words between quotation marks

Hi all,

i have been searching for this for ever and i cannot find any solution.
I have a text with many sentences within quotes.

For example:
blah blah blah “blah blah blah”

I need the code to output a windows with
a)Word count is: 5
b)Word count within quotes is: 3
c)Percentage is: 50%

So far what i do is
search then paste \“*\” then activate wildcard then find in main document then i get the number of the words within quotes and then calculate the percentage.



I would love a more automated way


Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
