IE7 Printing Problem

I hvae Windows XP and installed IE7 yesterday.  Now when I highlite part of an article to print, as soon as I hit the print button on top, the whole article starts printing, there is no "Print Selection" choice.  If I highlite a section and while I'm on the article I click Print, the highliting goes off.  Any solution?
 
I also don't see a "Help" button on the top bar, as there was with IE6.
 
Thanks so much for any help.

    When you highlight some text, right click on it, click print preview, then in the second drop down box (which probably says 'as laid out on screen') you can select 'As selected on screen' Then it will just show the selected text and you can print from there.
     
    To see the menu bar (which includes Help), right click on the command bar, check menu bar. By default it appears below the address bar, but if you want it above the address bar, there is a simple tweak:

    Thanks so much!  the print selefction worked, but it seems strange to have to go through all that instead of just clicking on the print button.  The print came out very tiny though -- does that hve to get adjusted also in the preview part?
     
    Also, when I went to add menu bar, it said Run or Save and I clicked on Run.  It got added to my registry -- is that a mistake?  It IS  uip on top though, which is great.
     
    Really appreciate your help -- I'm so jealous of folks like you!

    No mistake, it is a simple registry edit, so all's well.

    All's well -- almost.  Now when I open IE7 and the MSN page appears,, below the new IE7 bars, the old IE6 bars are also there, so my whole front page is now almost 1/2 bars!  How do I get rid of the IE6 bars?  Seems nothing is ever simple with me!!!
     
    Thanks again
