Default How to automaticly determine a file's reading grade level

At one time Word would summarize a file properties with the # of words,
charaters and reading grade level of the grammer. How does one get the
reading grade level in Word 2003?

In Tools Options Spelling & Grammar, check the box for "Show readability
statistics". (This needs to be done only once.)

Now, whenever you run a manual spell check (Tools Spelling or F7), it will
finish by displaying the Flesch Reading Ease and Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level
readability scores.
