I am using Word 2003, and am very happy to learn this information - it worked
like a charm.
Thank you very much!

Hi ?B?VGVycnkgVC4=?=,

I use Track Changes often, and appreciate the way that Word keeps a list
of
the reviewers for me. However, there are times I want to start fresh and
create a new document from one that I have worked on in the past, but I
do
not want to carry over the reviewers names. If I "accept all changes" in
the
document, then all the reviewers names are removed, except one. I would
like
to purge all and start with a clean slate.
In other words, on the formatting toolbar, I want to be able to click
"Show", then point to "Reviewers" and not see any names listed.
Is this possible?

depends on the version of Word that you have, which you unfortunately
don't
mention.

There's a tool to remove "private information" on the Microsoft website
that
will work with some versions of Word. And Word 2003 has an option that
will do
this in Tools/Options/Save.
