I've found the problem. It seems that 'curly' double quote marks and apostrophes, as opposed to the plain ones, are counted as words. Once I'd converted them all to plain marks the word count went down to only 19 above NaNoWriMo's word count. That's far more acceptable. However, converting them /back/ to smart quotes is going to be a pain; apostrophes are easy, but how does one convert the double quotes back when different sets are used for opening and closing? Any ideas?

I'm pretty sure that the "Altsearch" extension will do that. I'm not an expert with it but it's pretty cool doing the stuff I want it to -- Graham Lauder, OpenOffice.org MarCon (Marketing Contact) NZ http://marketing.openoffice.org/contacts.html INGOTs Moderator New Zealand www.theingots.org.nz
