Just upgraded to Office 2007. I do a lot of mail merging to e-mail. In
previous version, as the document was merged and passed to the e-mail client,
I could see a running count of the number of records merged in Word's status
bar at the bottom. Was this dropped for Office 2007? Can I get it back
somehow?

Right Click on the status bar and see if by checking one of the available
items there, you can gain the functionality that you are after.

Doug,

Thanks for the reply. I just tried it with EVERYTHING checked on the status
bar, and did not get the running count of merged records I did in previous
versions of Word, going back to Word 97 (and possibly earlier). Any idea if
this was dropped, and how I could get it back? Am I missing a setting buried
deep in Word?

I guess it may have been dropped. I do not know of any other place to look
for it.
