Default Show comments inline in text?

Thank you Jay. I will do that in future. Unfortunately that won't help with
the document I have already commented. Ah well ...

Thank you for the prompt and helpful suggestion.

Cheers,
Fraser

Hello,

Is is possible to have comments displayed inline in the text? I have
seen how to display edits/changes inline but cannot figure out how to
show the comments that way. Thank you in advance for any helpful
advice.

Sorry, no. Word shows comments in balloons or in the Reviewing Pane, but not
inline.

If you know that's what you want, you could type all your comments as
tracked inserts. You can temporarily change your name in the User
Information section of the options dialog (for instance, add a character to
it), and then you can use the Tracked Changes option to display only the
changes from that "author" to see inline "comments".
