My bad!
As you probably know TIMTOWTDI. When I had time to test what I had posted earlier I discoverd that it is generating raw statistics, counting EOL and everything. I am assuming that you want the statistics that are availabile from the properties of that document. The code below will do what you want.
I used the fuctions available within the application to do the work. This will usually work better for you when you are comunicating between applications.
And thanks for posting the code!
use strict;
use Win32::OLE qw(in with);
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Word';
use Win32::OLE::Enum;
# Here you have to call the file with "Name.pl C:\dir\file.doc"
# This will allow you to point the script anywere rather than
# having to put the script into the dir with the file.
die "Usage: perl doc_print.pl test.doc" unless @ARGV == 1;
my $Word = Win32::OLE->new( 'Word.Application', 'Quit' ) || die "Could
+n't run Word";
my $Doc = $Word->Documents->Open(@ARGV[0]) || die "File does not exist
+ or can not be opened";
# Selection can be the entire doc or refined to a sub-set of text
# It is easier to use the functions that exist in word to do the work.
my $num_pages = $Doc->ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticPages);
my $num_paragraphs = $Doc->ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticParagraphs);
my $num_lines = $Doc->ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticLines);
my $num_words = $Doc->ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticWords);
my $num_chars = $Doc->ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticCharacters);
my $num_charWs = $Doc->ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticCharactersWith
+Spaces);
printf "Page Count %d\n", $num_pages;
printf "Character (paragraphs) %d\n", $num_paragraphs;
printf "Line Count %d\n", $num_lines;
printf "Character (words) %d\n", $num_words;
printf "Character (with spaces) %d\n", $num_charWs;
printf "Character (wout spaces) %d\n", $num_chars;
$Doc->Close;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
