Hi Paul and Christian :)


If it's ok to enter every word, then anything with a good search/replace

function and a word counter should do it. bbedit (for mac or any unix text

editor, and I'm pretty sure Word or even Quark will tell you how many

instances there are) will I know, even searching through multiple documents.

But I *think* (not positive) what Christian wants is to know which word is

repeated the most times (and 2nd most etc.) without going through the whole

document and searching for each word and counting them up seperately? bbedit

(which can use unix grep functions) would probably still do this, but it's

way over my head to write up the search in that case...


Wish I thought this was more help,
