Count Formatted Characters

[Rahul Dewan]

How can we get a count of charcters which have been
formatted . for example how to count characters which are
underlines or in Italics or BOLD

 

[Greg Maxey]

Rahul,

Say you type the phrase, "Say you type the phrase" and you format all the
"y's" with italic.

Find>Replace>More. Check "use wildcards."

Type - * (that's an asterisk) in the find what field, click Format>Font and
select italic.

Type - ^& in the replace with field

Click "replace all"

Word will replace each italic character with itself (^& tell Word to replace
with the content of the find what field) and display the number of
replacements.
