NumWords field and Grammar Check discrepencies

T

I am using the NumWords field within my document to display the word count.
It updates when I request; however, its value is different that that
displayed when I perform a grammar check. Which value is correct, or more
accurate?

There's no 'correct' word count, because there's no rigorous definition of
'word'. Use whichever count you prefer.
