Character counting
harrie_t 12/3/2008 11:15:05 AM
Hi, Is it possible to count the individual characters in a word document and
produce a breakdown of the number of occurance of the characters used (ie 17
A's, .... 0No Z's)


Regards

Hi Harry,

A (not so) quick and dirty way is to use Find/Replace. If you check the 'match case' option, you can find upper and lower case
letters separately. Other than that, you'd need a macro.

You can find such a macro here:
