how does Office calculate word counts?

Hello,

I am interested in the way Word and other Office applications calculate the
word count. I would like to make a comparison between word counts of
different applications, and would need to know what counts as a word in Word
and what does not.

Thanks,

István from Hungary

Thanks! I would be happy to hear a little more about specifics - like
counting TOC entries, index, foot- and endnotes. I saw for example that in a
bulleted list a bullet is also considered a word. Do you happen to know about
any KnowledgeBase article explaining the details?

Thanks,
Istvan
