How can I get the Status Bar to be visible in Word 2007?
Several weeks ago the Status Bar disappeared from view in Word 2007. Now
there is no zoom slider or anything else at the bottom of the screen. I can't find any reference to this anywhere on the internet, so I guess I must be the only person in the world with this problem. I just can't figure it out. I'm running a PC with Windows XP Home Edition. Can anyone help? |

I don't think you can hide the actual status bar in Word 2007, but you can
hide the items on it. If you right-click the status bar, you can choose exactly what you want to show. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Kenasam" wrote in message ...

Trust me, there is no status bar to see at all, so there is no status bar to
right click on or anything else. "Stefan Blom" wrote: I don't think you can hide the actual status bar in Word 2007, but you can hide the items on it.

Has the screen size on the monitor been changed by someone deliberately
or inadvertently? Perhaps it is there but off the bottom of the visible screen. Tom MSMVP Windows Shell/User "Kenasam" wrote in message ...

So... when you right-click on the bottom of a Word document window, nothing
happens? What happens if you start Word in Safe Mode (hold down Ctrl as Word is starting, then click Yes to starting in safe mode)? Does the status bar show up now? -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Kenasam" wrote in message ...

Scrren size hasn't changed.
But now the problem has rectified itself. See above posts. "Tom Ferguson" wrote: Has the screen size on the monitor been changed by someone deliberately or inadvertently?

Thanks for the suggestion. I started Word in safe mode and then saw the
bottom status bar right away. Then I closed it out and reopened normally and now the status bar is there to see, as it should be. I don't know why or how, but now it's there again.

Thanks to all who have responded to my original post. As of today, the
problem has rectified itself. I don't know how it did, but at least now I can see the status bar at the bottom of Word 2007.

For future reference, troubleshooting any Word issue should include
restarting Word at minimum. If that doesn't help, restarting Windows often clears problems. -- Suzanne S.
