Word count tool

Hello,

I'm doing an analyses of a couple of hundred e-mails for a research project. In this analyses I also need to count the words within the e-mails. I have to do this manually.

I was wondering if there's a tool available that makes it possible to count the words when text is selected with the mouse? Or something similar?

Copy/pasting from the mailclient (Pegasus) to Word and then use the word count, is off course an option. But I'm looking for an even faster way.

Thanks for any input,

PiC

This little app also requires copy and paste:


Word Counter XP is a handy little tool that not only counts characters, words, and lines, it allows you to customize what it is counting as well (include tabs, spaces etc.) and remove formatting and line breaks. It makes a useful utility for secretaries, students, and many other uses where you need to count the content of a document, typed text or paste sections of copied text.
