Hi Robin,

If I should want the number of words in the document, then

Tools > Word count will give it

OR I can get it by File > Properties > Statistics

OR I can use Insert > Field > NumWords

OR Insert > Fields > DocProperty > Words

HOWEVER.... How can I insert into the document
the answers to

(a) Number of Tables, and

Place the cursor where you want and run ths line of code:
Selection.TypeText ActiveDocument.Tables.Count

(b) Number of Figures

Too vague... a figure can be anything, a picture, a textbox, a graphic, an
org chart, etc... You have to be more precise here as to what you refer to
when using "figure."
