How do I know what page # I am on in Word?

[Guest]

Using Word 2003 SP2 for Small Business
In previous versions I would see "Page _ of _" on the status bar at the
bottom of the screen.
How do I get this to show in this version?

Thanks very much.

If you have the status bar displayed and are not seeing this, it may be that
you don't have background repagination enabled (Tools | Options | General).

It's still in the same place. But it was never "Page _ of _" but instead
"Page _ Sec _ _/_" where the last part showed the absolute page number
and the total number of pages.

If you can't see the status bar at all, go to Tools > Options > View and
check the "Status bar" box.
