Hello to all, and thank you for keeping at it! Robert’s latest script works, though another weird thing happened.
I deleted everything but the text highlighted in yellow. I ran the script which returned. The correct count wa actually 58.
After doing some additional testing, I realized that the script still returns 2 words highlighted in Bright Green even though there no longer is any text highlighted in Bright Green in the document.
I repeated the some test on something I quickly typed in a separate Word doc, and the count was correct there, so the problem above could be due to that specific file or something not accounted for yet.
