Default Track Changes

I have a user that when a comment is inserted into a word doc, he then saves
the document. When it is opened up the comments are not viewable immediately
unless you select track changes or comment from the menu. Does anyone know
how I can set the document up so when the document is opened the comments are
visible immediately

Many Thanks

I managed to stumble across the answer whilst playing about. The document
was saved in a "Final" view. So when saved and opened it opened in final
view with no comments or track changes appearing.

When I saved a document in "Final Showing Markup" and saved it and reopened
it it reopened in the "Final Showing Markup" view and showed the changes.

I therefore copy and pasted the original users document into a new document
and then saved it in "Final Showing Markup" and when re-opened the changes
were there.

Thought I would post this back in case others were wondering or if someone
searches and has this problem in future
