No, but when you click on the button, you get the character count.

Assuming you're in Word2007 also, right-clicking directly on the
status bar (in the middle, where it's blank) should bring up a pup-up
with lots of choices of things to show (including Section, Language,
and Caps Lock), and among them is Word Count.

Hi, I needed to find the "character" count for the first time in Word 2007
and looked it up and came to this post. I am surprised to see the Microsoft
does not really have instructions in the Help section, However after reading
this entire email from top to bottom, this one, with the keyboard
instructions is what worked for me.
When I go to Review > there is no "proofing" for me to select? What am I
missing? I would like to know how to click to it as well. I dont know why
they couldnt include it with the word count area, which seems to be the first
place it should be associated with. It would be great if I could get the
answer.
Thanks,
Val
