 |
|
Hi!
I`m kinda newbie with oOo but I really need to write a specific macro using Writer.
I need to extract the number of words in a single document using the File/Preferences/Statistics/Wordcount ... i browsed through the whole help and manuals that I could put my hands on, but I found nothing.
Is there any way to use the word count feature in a macro? The thing is that I have to put it in a file afterwards...
thanx for attention..

| Assuming you want to put it in the same file then you don't need a macro to access OO's word count. Insert > Fields > Other > Document tab, select Statistics then Words and insert the field. |
