OpenOffice 2.0 word count does not discriminate between words in the body of a
document and words in footnotes, endnotes, headers and footers.  Microsoft Word
does not count these, and I believe it is a better approach, as counting those
is misleading to someone writing a document that has lots of references a
verbose header/footer over many pages.

In fact Microsoft word has an option, in the word count dialog that pops up, to
toggle whether footnotes and endnotes are included or not.  However, Microsoft
Word absolutely does not include the headers and footers - at least not in Word
2000.

Thanks
