I am attempting to view expanded Word files.

After Ctrl Open to view files in a directory I also wish
to see two or three lines of text so I can know what is
in the document.

Also is it possible to see the Wordcount rather than
kilobyte size of the document which is meaningless in my
application.

So Ctrl Open to Look in then Views will give me name,
size (in kilobytes), type and when modified and various
other things.

I need in Views, two or three lines of the text in each
document and size of document in words.

I don't think you can get any of this in Windows Explorer. In Word's File
Open dialog, however, try setting the view to Properties or Preview.
