try Abacus
It's also free.
abacus
works well and also does daily counts, invoicing too!
I believe Abacus?
abacus
Thanks. Does it count "differently" than Word? What is the web site, abacus.com? I will try it.
Can anyone help me with Abacus? SM
I'm trying to use it for the first time. I opened the program and see the drives listed at the upper left. However, I need to get into My Documents and go from there, and it's not listed there. I have A, C, D, and E drives. Even if I click on C, I don't get a choice of My Documents. Has this ever happened to anyone else? What am I missing here?
Try Abacus..
It gives you a free trial version, so you can see if you like it.. Not sure of the website, just search abacus line counter.
abacus
thank you...I really like the program and did not want to change it.

I use Abacus. sm
Abacus comes with a free trial and costs around $20. It is customizable, counts in batches and I have found it to be a great tool. I consider a line to be 65 characters with spaces, including tabs, returns and header/footers. I do not count formatting or caps. Hope this helps.
Abacus
Anyone know if there is a free trial period on this software? Thanks.
I also use Abacus (about $20).
In PA I am required to charge sales tax and I can't add that in Abacus, but I do use it to create the line counts that I then transfer to Quicken for invoicing.

I used Abacus at the advice of who I work for once--sm
and yes, it is free, but it consistently counted less lines than I get with other line counter software. It would not count the headers, either. Depending upon the file it was counting, I found it to count from 1 to 6 lines different from others. To me, that is too many variables. JMO
I have Abacus SE, brand new with disk. s/m
I paid $40 for it about two months ago. It is very user friendly and prints out invoices. I'll sell it for half price plus shipping if you are interested.

Does anyone use abacus with Word 2007? sm
I've used abacus 2.1 for years. Now I have Vista with Word '07 and I was told that 2.1 and 3.0 would work, but either would be hard to configure. I'm not sure what that really means and would like to hear from anyone who is using it about problems or advice.
Abacus line counting
I have downloaded the Abacus SE program and cannot figure out how this program works. If anyone is willing to walk me through the steps of this process I would appreciate it. Information would be 9 cpl at 65 character line.
Thank you, JNGI

Thanks! Emailed you.
I use a program called The Abacus.

You can download abacus free. You just have
to delete this line that says: Buy me so you can get rid of this annoying line (or something like that). It counts your lines for you and then creates an invoice. Looks professional. Hope this helps.
I downloaded Abacus. doggone if sm
I can figure out how to use it! That is what happens when you work for a one company forever and ever. Don't keep up on the other stuff. I did see the counter on Word so I guess I will have to wait and see how they do things.
Some companies don't explain things very well.
Abacus has a line counting program and you
can download a free trial version of it. Don't have the website, but I think a Google search would help you find it.
Use Abacus. You can download for free. Very accurate. nm

Not familiar with your software, but Abacus has many of these options...
You might just ask them what software they use, too, for future reference. Good luck!
Abacus Line Counting Program
I've been using this for about a year. It used to count subdirectories. I thought all I had to do was check "add subdirectory files to listbox." Now it's not working. Am I forgetting something?
Abacus Line Counting Software sm
has a free trial and only $38 to buy -- much less than other line counting programs!
I think it only works with Word though.
Love my Abacus too! Awesome free program! nm

I've had problems with Abacus' accuracy in the past.

I use Abacus; however, it is an older version. Don't know if it has been upgraded. It is free.

I use Abacus and send by email/WinZip encrypted. nm
There is a free download line counter called Abacus and I have used
that program to count my lines, which works real well. I just always used a program to do it. It's pretty user friendly and you can try it for free and see if you like it.
I thought Word counted blank lines using this method. I think the OP is looking for Abacus. nm

Abacus is not free. It is $20 but worth it. You can download a trial version free which does not h
I have used this for years and have compared to Sylvan, Word, and MP Count, etc. When you have it set to count every character, bold, shift, tab, etc. It is great and always higher than the others. Now if you are wanting gross lines like in Word then no it won't be as high because Word counts blanks lines and Abacus counts a line only if there is a character on it. There is also two places to check for it to count the Headers/Footers. If you have the FREE version then it must be the trial or a very old version so you don't have all the features and functions.
