Default Mailmerge toolbar shows only a 2 digit record number

After applying Office SP3, a new problem has been created.
If I set up a mailmerge (using an Excel file or an Access dB) with more than
99 records, the record number indicator on the winword mailmerge toolbar
shows only the first 2 digits. The merge can be completed correctly, but you
can't easily see what record number you are viewing.
Nor can you goto the last record to see how many there will be in the merge.

I tried this on a machine that did not have the update applied and there was
no problem. Then I did the update and the problem now exists on both machines.
Has anyone else seen this yet?

I've seen it now you mention it. It's definitely an SP3 thing. I'll see if I
can find a way to report it.
