word segmentation using OpenCV

Hi I am an OpenCV novice and am working on a scanned text image and I need to highlight all the words in that image.I know the problem is equivalent to finding subimages within an image with extra whitespaces around them. OCR cannot be used and I just need to outline each word with a border.

Can someone suggest how it might be done using OpenCV.

Also can someone point me to some appropriate tutorials for OpenCV for this kind of work.

Thanks
