We generally avoid this sort of thing because it would require a macro to run on every single edit and keystroke.



Can we talk you into another option that is less CPU-intensive? Like do the count when the document is saved.

Thanks, but the whole purpose is to have a counter running in the background and popping up notifications/alerts when I reach X number of words. If it counts when I save, it defeats the purpose.
