> Hey John (and gang):
>
> Back on September 14th, you requested that the person who found the
> answer to the missing Publisher Page Sorter issue post to this
> newsgroup if the solution was ever discovered. Well, it was....
> That's why I'm posting a personal reply to you now. What you're
> going to read below is the same thing I posted independently of
> replying directly to you in the same question feed that you, Spanner,
> JoAnn Paules, and Mary Sauer created, titled, "How do I view the Page
> Sorter in Publisher 2007." At any rate, here's the solution to the
> missing page sorter problem:

> Hey gang,
>
> I'm glad someone else was having the same problem I was - not for the
> frustration it causes, but to know that I was not alone. And I say
> "was" because I've found a solutoin to the Page Sorter issue.
>
> Since my purchase of Micrsoft Office Professional 2007 was less then
> 90 days ago, I was able to take advantage of free Microsoft Office
> tech support from their on-line service center. Therefore, the
> solution you're about to read is a bona fide Microsoft Office
> solution, as it came directly from one of their techs to me.
>
> To fix the Publisher page sorter issue, simply follow the steps
> below. But beware, because this fix takes you into the Registry
> window to edit a specific part of the Publisher program, and
> Microsoft takes great pains to warn you that making a mistake here
> may corrupt your program altogether (or corrupt certain program files
> that my cause your version of Publisher not to function correctly).
> So please be careful as you follow these steps to fix your page
> sorter issue.
>
> O.K., now that the nice big warning is out of the way, you'll have
> Publisher 2007 up and running as it should be in 10 quick steps. But
> before you begin, please take a moment to close all programs on your
> computer, then...
>
> 1. If you're using Windows Vista, Click on the start button, and type
> "regedit" into the "Search" field under the "All Programs" link. If
> you're using XP or earlier versions, click on the start button, then
> on "Run," then type "regedit" into the field, then click "O.K."
>
> 2. When the registry window opens, your going to next make a quick
> back-up of these files before you attempt to change anything (in-case
> that detrimental mistake we discussed earlier is accidentally made).
> This you're going to do by:
>
> a. Clicking on "File"
> b. Then on "Export"
> c. Then on "Desktop" in the left-hand task pane
> d. Then by typing "Backup" in the "File Name" field
> e. Then clicking on "Save"
>
> 3. Now that that's out of the way, your going to start at the top of
> the Registry window and look down till you find the branch
> "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" Click on it, and a new sub menu will appear.
>
> 4. When the new sub menu appears, go down and click on "Software."
> Again, a new sub menu will appear.
>
> 5. Next, click on "Microsoft," then on "Office," then on "12.0" This
> will bring you to the place where you can choose the specific Office
> program you're having issues with and fix the program-specific issue.
>
> 6. Next, click on "Publisher," then on "Preferences"
>
> 7. If you don't see a "ShowStatusBar" string, you'll need to create
> one by following the steps below. Otherwise, move on to step #8.
>
> a. To create a "ShowStatusBar" string, start by right-clicking on
> the right pane of the window and choosing, "New"
> b. Then click on "String Value" It will create a new string
> called "New Value #1"
> c. Rename the new value string "ShowStatusBar" and it will create
> the "ShowStatusBar" string.
> d. Now move on to step #8.
>
> 8. Right-click on the "ShowStatusBar" string, then click on "Modify"
>
> 9. When the "Edit String" window opens, simply change the value data
> to "1" (if you're like me, the value data was probably set at "0").
> Once you've changed the value data to "1" then click "O.K."
>
> 10. Exit from all registry related windows and launch your version of
> Microsoft Office Publisher 2007. You should see the page sorter in
> the lower left-hand corner of your Publisher screen right where it
> always should have been.
>
> And that's it. Like I said, worked like a charm for me! But if this
> does not work for you, please take a moment to contact Microsoft
> Office tech support directly, because that means that you have
> another issue altogether.
>
> Thanks gang! May this small piece of advice help any and all the
> rest of us who cannot find the Page sorter in Publisher 2007!
