hi, i need to show in a pdf a list and count of the words contained in the document, and that when clicked, it make a search of the picked word so the user can locate that word in the document.

e.g.

+cake (3)
+tree(2)

when clicked "cake" the acrobat reader must open the search dialog and perform the search for the word "cake"

Thx

So you'll already have the count, okay.  This would be in a list field, right?
 
// JS action in your list's "mouseUp" event
search.query( event.target.value, "ActiveDocument" );
 
If you want to do this as an index (a bunch of text across N pages) rather than in a list field, you'll need to create invisible (null borderColor, null backgroundColor, empty caption) Pushbutton fields over each word with a similar mouseUp event.  If you name each button for the word it covers, you can even use "event.target.name" for the query text and reuse the same JSAction for all of the fields.
