Auto text as tracked change
The auto text entries used in Microsoft Word 2003 keep being inserted as a
tracked change even when track changes feature is turned off. I start with a new document based upon the normal template, using auto text entries that were defined under the previous version of Microsoft Office 2000, and when I use auto text entries, the auto text automatically shows up as a tracked change, I then have to the accept the change in order to complete the fill-in. What would be causing this and how can I correct it? |

It sounds like the AutoText entries were created using a document with
Track Changes enabled. To correct the issue you will need to redefine the AutoText entries in the template after you've accepted the changes.. Insert them in a document, accept the changes, and then redefine them by selecting the entry in the document and adding it again using the same name. Note once you add it using the same name you should be prompted with a message asking if you wish to "Redefine the AutoText entry". Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for assistance by email can not be acknowledged. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beth Melton Microsoft Office MVP Word FAQ: http://mvps.org/word TechTrax eZine: http://mousetrax.com/techtrax/ MVP FAQ site: http://mvps.org/ "John Gregory" wrote in message ...
