Word 2007 now has Live Word Count (it automatically updates as you type - no
need to refresh) that can be displayed in the status bar. If you do not see
the Word count (Words: ##) then right-click the status bar and then click
Word Count. For additional information, such as lines, characters, etc,
click the Word Count command in the status bar.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email cannot be acknowledged.
