Default word 2007 and combining edits from different users...

On the Reviewing tab, under Compare, click the Combine command. What
you do is combine the first set of edits, then on the combined
document, use the Combine command again and combine the next set, and
so on.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.

Hi! We have frequently the situation that we have a manuscript that
needs to
be edited by several different persons (simulataneously). The first
problem
is that - at least to my knowledge - even the new word 2007 is not
able to
have multiple persons working on the same manuskript as e.g. Onenote
can.
therefore, our people need to open the work manuscript as a read
only
document and save it under another name. Then, the mess up begins:
word 2007
seems to be able to combine the edits of 2 persons, but what about
more than
2 persons.
