The beta version of OpenOffice.org has functionality to count the words
in a selection. However, it is not reccomended that you use this for
important documents until it is released as OpenOffice.org 2.0, because
it may freeze or lose data. I hope this information helped.

As I understand with this option it is possible to see just the whole

Hi
I am not sure if this is just me, or a bug in the software.
I am currently working on my ECA (End of Course Assesment) for the
open university, part of this is to answer a question in 60 - 100
words. If I goto statistics it seems to give me the same word count,
regardless of the fact that I have highlighed a selection I get the
same word count that I do if I don't highlight anything.
How do I get a word count of a selection of text, I am working on
this ECA in 1.1.4, however I have just noticed the same thing happens
when I clicked statistics on my openoffice save as different format
document (previous e-mail) it gives 125 words, even though I also
did the same count with just the last 2 line sentance highlighted.
(just thought does 2.0 beta do the same thing)
Just thought I would ask, am I doing the word count correctly,
It needs to work on a selection as the document for My ECA has titles
and other data which do not form part of the answer to the question,
so these don't need to be counted.
I probably need to update my software, as 1.1.79 is slightly out of
date, but I am not really using this for production use, and would
rather wait until 2.0 comes out.
thanks for any help
Paul
