Default How do I show line numbers on the screen?

I have added line numbers to a document but they only show up in the view
screen and the printed document. I need to see the line numbers on the
screen. Can't find it in "help".

Line numbers are displayed in Print Layout view but not in Normal view.

Are you showing page width, margin width, or what?

If you added the line numbers as a text box (as in the Pleading Wizard) as
opposed to using the Line Numbers command on the Layout tab of Page Setup,
then make sure that you have "White space between pages" checked on the View
tab of Tools | Options.
