Macro to copy a word or phrase to a cell in Excel

[richiwatts]

Hi all,

I have a 200+ page Word document that I need to read and someho
extract words/terms into a seperate file so that I can later check al
these terms in a dictionary and then create a glossary of terms.

I have just started and have been doing it like this:

I have Word and Excel open next to each other.
When I see a word that I want to check I double click it to highligh
it > right click > Copy > Click the Excel screen > Clik the next cel
down > right click > Paste > back to Word screen.

After all that it is difficult to keep the reading flow going. Doe
anyone know of a Macro that will help me automate this? (the word lis
doesn't have to go into Excel)
Or does anyone have any clever ideas of a better way to do this.

Many thanks
Rich
