Jay, Thank you for replying. We are delighted that there is a work around.
Please excuse my ignorance but I have never before entered a line of
macro.
Will you kindly be more specific as to how I enter this info. Thank you.
Janet

I manage a publications dept and I have been hearing many complaints
about
the new 2002 MSWord. We work on many documents and the biggest
complaint so

possible to SHOW ADDED TEXT WHILE HIDING DELETED TEXT. Does anybody
know if
this function is still available? If it isn't this is a huge mistake on
Microsoft's part and certainly not an upgrade but a big downgrade.

In Word 2002 the Track Changes options dialog left out the options for
deleted text, which was indeed a huge mistake that was rectified in
Word 2003. (Note that your 2002 version is no longer "new"!)

But you can still set the option by using this line of macro code:

Options.DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkHidden

You can enter this in the Visual Basic immediate window (Alt+F11,
Ctrl+G). You only need to run it once. There are other values you can
set, which are self-explanatory: wdDeletedTextMarkStrikeThrough,
wdDeletedTextMarkUnderline, wdDeletedTextMarkBold, and so forth.
