From Microsoft Word 2003 onwards, to view the total number of words you use the Word Count Dialog Box. This box is normally placed on the status bar at the bottom alongside the page number and language.

The box displays the total number of words in the document, or the total number of selected words if a section of text is highlighted. Click the box to open it and further statistics appear, namely:

  • number of pages
  • number of words
  • number of characters (with and without spaces)
  • number of paragraphs
  • number of lines

There is a checkbox at the bottom of this window to Include text within textboxes, footnotes and endnotes in the count if you want to.

If the Word Count Dialog Box is not shown on the status bar you can place it there by right-clicking anywhere on the status bar and clicking on "Word Count" on the pop-up menu that appears.
