In fact, your working technique will run you into deep trouble. If you
work like this, your data might get inconstantly, and if you code your
texts while the error correction is not finished, you make yourself more
work than it is necessary. So: first see your text, correct it, and if
this version is complete, you can start your coding. Mixing editing and
coding can lead to big desasters, that also applies for all kinds of
data analyses, not just for QDA.

Why? WORD has it.
