Default token/type count?


Hi,
I'm not sure if it's possible to do this in excel (I know you can do i
with Perl, but that looks too complicated for me!) but I was wondering
is it possible to get Excel to count the tokens/types of words in
cell? So I have a paragraph, and I want a measure of how repetitive i
is - how many words there are, divided by how many different types o
words there are. If this isn't possible in excel, does anyone have an
idea how I should do it, besides complex programming things?
Thanks,
Ciar
