Notepad status bar option greyed out

[zaid]

Hello friends,

Some thing fatal happened with my notepad.I just fired up notepad and the view... status bar option is grayed out.I'm certain it was working last week because I was using ti to look at line numbers. I've not consciously changed anything.Anybody here to suggest me in this matter?

thanks for any reply

You can check this out in Notepad, click on Format in the toolbar at the top of the window. In the menu that drops down, click on Word Wrap to delete the check mark next to it. You should now be able to go to View and click on Status Bar to have it displayed.

Hey you better try to turning of wrap text. When text is wrapped the same line can cover more than one line on-screen and notepad doesn't have the capability to show you the actual line number its on in the file during wrap-text mode
