Find the word count in a Word document

“

- [Instructor] It's easy to get a word count in Microsoft Word. At the bottom left-hand side of the screen, you can see the total number of words in your document. This will change in real time as you type. You can click on this total to see more statistics, such as character, paragraph, and line count. You can also select some text to see just the info for that selection. Again, clicking on the word count will show the detail statistics for just the selected text.
