Default Where is the word count tool?

Hi Digitig,

Could you provide some steps to reproduce the behavior?


Unfortunately no, I've not found a pattern to it yet. Mind you, I've only
just noticed it (it's the first time I've needed word count since moving to
Office 2007) so I'll keep a look out to see if I can make it reproducible.

Is this typed text, or text pasted from a non-Word document pasted in?


This is text I have typed in. It's a college assignment in which I need to
do 1000 words for the first part and 300 for each of the second and third
parts. The partial counts were showing fine for the parts 1 and 2, not at all
for part 3. I kept typing and selecting, and after a bit more typing and
selecting the word count started appearing as it should (now I just need to
get my word count down by about 20%!).

What font are you using and what view are you working in.


Calibri, print layout.
