Lisette,

The only way I've found to get a word count for my Text Edit documents is by 
writing and saving in Text Edit, but then when I wish to get a word count, I 
open that same document in Pages, navigate the Inspector until I see where it 
says Word Count and get my count there.  I do not know if this helps or if it's 
too cumbersome, but just an idea.
