Michael,
If each single word entry is on separate line I will assume that each word
is an individual paragraph. Something like this might work:
Sub Test()
Dim i As Long, pararange As Range
Dim j As Long
j = 0
For i = 1 To ActiveDocument.Paragraphs.Count
Set pararange = ActiveDocument.Paragraphs(i).Range
If pararange.Font.Bold = True Then j = j + 1
Next i
MsgBox "There are " & j & " bolded entries in this document"
End Sub
