Morey,
I've never tried HJ Pad, just because I couldn't figure out and never asked
anyone what makes it different, or sometimes more useful, than the built-in
Windows text processors, WordPad and Notepad, which I use instead of Word
for casual things that I don't intend to either print out or send out
formatted by email as attachments, for which purposes I use Word. But so
far as I know, it's only Word that has things like the Word Count function
in the Tools menu, which, if you run a Word Count on all or part of a
document in Word, will give you a whole list of quantified info about the
file, which you can read (at least I do it this way) by switching to the
Jaws cursor.
I think that's what you're after, and I am sure WordPad and Notepad don't
offer that capability. Don't know about HJ Pad.
It just occurred to me. I wonder why they haven't renamed it FS Pad or
something like that. The word "legacy" comes to mind....
Good luck.

Subject: HJ Pad or ?
Hello all,
While making or in a HJ Pad Document, is it possible to find out how many
characters, and or, how many lines are in that document?
If not in HJ Pad, I also have WordPad and NotePad on this computer. Would
either of these do what I am after?
I have gone through all the menus for these but no information found.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Morey Worthington
