Default Display Track Changes Date/Time stamp in Reviewing Pane

Hi Cindy

I posted a reply yesterday that seems not to have gone through, so this is
to thank you once more for your trouble, and to say that the Date/Time stamp
is missing from the reviewing pane whether I'm working on an older pre-Word
2007 document, or a newly created .docx document.

Office Diagnostics simply reports that my Office 2007 installation needs to
be updated, but on the other hand Windows Update (my OS is Vista Business)
disagrees and tells me that I already have all necessary updates for all
programs including Office. So I do at least know that either Office
Diagnostics or Windows Update is faulty. Maybe I will eventually try
reinstalling Office 2007 and then updating it all over again, but another
solution will be to simply adjust my priorities and get on with other things!

Hi Dave,

I'm using Word 2007, and in my reviewing pane the "title bar" for each entry
simply has, on the left, Inserted, or Deleted, or Comment (plus Comment
Number), etc., and on the right the author/reviewer name. Nothing else.

What you describe is exactly what I want. But I've looked everywhere I can
think of - on the Ribbon and in Word Options - and I can't find any way to
change settings to get what you describe.

I've looked for almost an hour and I can't find it, either. OTOH I did find a
way to change something that simply started on its own and has been bothering
me for some time...

You might try running the Office diagnostics and see if that finds a problem in
the Word installation and repairs it.

Ah, one other thought: were these documents created in Word 2007, or are you
opening documents created and edited in an earlier version of Word?
