Readability Statistics from Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level

[John Zhong]

Hi,

I use Word 2003 and can find from the tool bar the Readability Statistics
from Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level and Flesch Reading Ease when I click "Check
spelling and grammar" as shown below, but I could not find my favorite
writing tool by using 2007 Office Word under Review-Proofing-Spelling and
Grammar.

Readability Statistics

Counts
Words 405
Characters 2056
Paragraphs 8
Sentences 20

Averages
Sentences per Paragraph 3.3
Words per Sentences 19.5
Characters per Word 4.9

Readability
Passive Sentences 12%
Flesch Reading Ease 47.7
Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level 11.4

Please give me ideas of how to get it or install something from the website
into my new 2007 Office Word. Thanks
