Wordcount at Book level rather than FIle level

[Rod Fee]

Hi there,

 

I am using:

Windows 7 64 bit and 

Framemaker 10.0.1.408

 

I am writing a book. I have a Framemaker 'book' file and in it I have 25 or
so chapters which are each separate files.

 

My need is to put a word count somewhere at the beginning of the book that
is a count of all words in the book.

 

I note that there is a word count feature per file which I can use but it is
boring doing this all the time on each file and then adding them up.

 

I am new to scripting in FM and though I see one or two scripts that say
they do what I want to they either cost money or are made fro earlier
versions and do not appear (to me anyway) to give any result when I run them
from File/Scripts.

 

Can anyone assist?

 

Great forum by the way. I have learned heaps just reading the flow of emails
coming in for all sorts of strange and wonderful purposes J

 

Regards,

Rod Fee
