Word 2007 line count

[Siouxzqmc]

Where is the line count recorded in Word 2007? Thanks!

What do you mean by "recorded"?

If you want to add line numbers to your pages, go to Page Layout tab,
Page Setup group, Line Numbers.

If you want to see what line you're in as you type, right-click on the
Status Bar (bottom of the document window) and check it (and other
useful things) on the list that appears. (This appears to show only
the line on the present page, not a cumulative total.)

For total line count:
Pick the "orb" ->Prepare->Properties, then select "Document
Properties->Advanced Properties" and go to the Statistics tab.

Will that change the running count displayed in the Status Bar for the
present location of the cursor?

You can show it on the status bar momentarily or in a message box
using a macro:

Sub ScratchMaco()
Application.StatusBar = "Total lines : " &
ActiveDocument.ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticLines)
Msgbox "Total lines : " & ActiveDocument.ComputeStatistics
(wdStatisticLines)
End Sub
