You might find this interesting, then:

Windows 2000 sp4 (fully patched), OOo 2.0.4. I opened a document I had created many months before with OOo and saved as a Word document. The printer stored with it lacked the specific font, so the program substituted, no sweat. I checked the properties, and I had no word count.

I then selected a valid printer for the document, then went back to check the word count, and it worked. It appears the count won't occur unless some activity occurs to the file (universal activity?) first.

As promised, I tried this functionality on a Windows XP sp2 machine with OOo 2.0.4 and it worked only partly: if I select the text, it counts the words, unselected in gives 0's for every count (words and characters, selected and whole text).
Regards,

Freddy

I am happy to say that on my Debian unstable and with version 2.04 installed from rpm's and with Sun Java, word count is working for me. That is, I go to Tools -> Statistics and I have a little window opening saying the number of words and the number of characters in the selected area (o if nothing selected) and in the whole document. Both are working as they should! I try later today on a windows machine I donut have one in my home, but only at work.
Regards,

Freddy

Jeffery:

I found there is an open issue in regards to the usage of this feature
and that it is not fixed.  If you would go to the OpenOffice.org
IssueZilla and vote for issue 70534, I did. The more votes, the higher
on the list it moves and this tells the Word Processing team how many
folks are affected.  You will have to register for the site.

Hello

I'm glad to say the Word count for selection as well as whole text is
working fine in the english OOo 2.0.4 on an iMac PPC with Panther (10.3.9). It functions when I open a existing document without making any change to
it, as well as with a document I'm working on.
Apparently, there would be only an issue with Windows and Linux.
