Notepad

I'm running windows xp pro and on occasion use notepad. I've noticed that
when I copy/paste information into notepad, sometimes the option view=.show
status bar is greyed out and at other times it isn't.

Would anyone know what causes this and if there is a fix/patch for XP to
resolve this issue?

Thank you

The fix is very simple. In FORMAT menu item, there is an item called
Wordwrap. Just disable/unclick it. then go to VIEW meny item and check
the Status BAR item.

Now whenever a file has WordWrap disabled, you will be able to see the
status bar otherwise not. It is a toggle type switch!

There is no Fix or patch as it is by design. Word Wrap controls it.

Thank you...that was it.

That's to bad it doesn't work with word wrap.....word wrap is a nice way to
lay out the page similar to 8.5x11 and see how many lines are being used...I
know word can be used or something similar, but notepad is fast loading and
good for a quick glance

See line 95 (Right) "Enable Notepad Status Bar with Word Wrap"

Why wouldn't M$ allow us to use line count with wordwrap? I know there is a
tweak, but is there any reason they wouldn't want that by default.

Because the line count will be wrong. There is no tweak.
