I have a list of employee comments that we want to analyze. The first thing I've done is to list the top words used in the comments and count how many comments have these words in them. What I now want to know is there a way of getting what word was associated with it.

As an example one of the words we've looked up was benefit coverage, so now we want to see if there is a way to find out the associated word with coverage is it health, dental etc. We want to be able to count the number of word associations.

Is there a way that we can do this in excel 2010?
 

Excel Facts

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
I have already got the word count what I need is a way to do the word association count as shown below. As an example for the first comment I would need to count both the dental as a word association with coverage as well as glasses.

Thank you very much, the issue I have is that I need to find out what words are associated with one another because I have 64000 comments. Is there a way to find out what words are associated with one another. so for example is there a way to crosstab how many times a word was used in conjuntion with another based on my word counts?

So in this example both the words dental and coverage showed up in 3 comments.
