Show Change bars only
In Tools Options Track Changes, set the Insertions dropdown to Color
Only and set the Deletions dropdown to Hidden. Choose colors as you like for the inserted text and the change bars. Then the text you change will look like the final version, but the change bars will still appear in the margin. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

To do this in Word 2002, however, you need a Registry edit. See

Jay,
I don't have a deletions dropdown under Track Changes - I'm using XP 2002 Any other suggestions for not showing deleted text and just showing the change bar?

Yes, I did go to the site - I couldn't find via any searches how to have
change bars only on - it applies more to colors of change text and deletions. Thank you for your assistance...

Hmm. Not as comprehensive as I thought. You need to set the formatting of
deletions to Hidden. At a guess, this *might* be: ..DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkHidden I know nothing of VBA, but I'm sure someone will correct me if this is wrong. I would think you wouldn't need the parts of the macro that set the formatting for inserted text, since this can be done through the UI, but what you want for that is "None." Shauna also devised an add-in to control Track Changes, but IIRC, it didn't work flawlessly, and since Word 2003 remedied the problem, it was quietly dropped. -- Suzanne S.

Take the macro from Greg Maxey's web page that you already visited. Put it
into the VBA editor in Word. Just change one line -- replace the line .DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkStrikeThrough with the line .DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkHidden Run the macro once. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
