I'd like to be able to identify commonly used words within a document so that I can then create autocorrect entries to save time.  Is there an easy and quick way to do this?  Thanks!

there's no built-in option in Ms Office to count the most commonly used words. But in Ms Word, you can either use Macro or other third-party tools to get this working. See the article if you want to do the Macros option,
