Thank you for the answer.

please, see the attached image that shows that words count directly the number of selected words.

well, i think that the only soluiton is the MS word must be develpoed in such a way to achieve what we r looking for (which list).

The method that you have provided is manual and not practical for large files which contains hundreds of pages.

do u agree with me?

The count that appears is just the count for the area you've selected. If the text you want to count is broken up by tables and other elements that can throw off your count, two options:

1. Select the text areas as far as you can. Write down the total. Select the next text area. So forth. Add your totals.
2. Select and copy all the text you want to count. Paste it into a blank document. Count the new document. Delete the new document.
