Insert a field of word count for a bookmark

wansonant · #1 08-29-2018, 11:30 PM

I want to get a word count for a bookmark that I have set.

I read some articles as follows:

https://word.tips.net/T000519_Word_C...a_Section.html

https://www.msofficeforums.com/word-...ed-within.html

However, I cannot use their code to do what I want to.

For example, I upload the word file, paper, there are two different word counts: abstract (I have added a bookmark called abstract for it) and full text.

Can anyone teach me how to insert a field to show the word counts of abstract.

It is ok if I need to use VBA.

The NUMWORDS field cannot return a word count for anything other than the entire document.
