Is there a way to count the number of occurences that spans two lines?

For example, in the document, it states:

Category : Fruit
STATUS : Open

How do I count the number of occurences in Word that display these two lines
together?

Thank you for your help,
Amy

Press Ctrl+H

Set Find:Category : Fruit^pSTATUS: Open
Set Replace:^&

....and click Replace All. (Note: I probably didn't get the spacing correct,
but the key is to separate them with ^p, which is a special character that
means "paragraph mark" in Word search-ese. ^& is a special character meaning
"whatever you found".

This will replace all occurrences with exactly what's there (hence, not
really changing anything), and it will report the number of "changes".
