Track Changes in Word 2007
Although the Track Changes Options dialog box enables me to choose a
highlighting color for merged/split cells markup; when I try to merge/split cells, the following message appears: €śThis action will not be marked as a change. Do you want to continue?€ť How can I get this function to work properly? Thanks |

Track Changes in Word 2007
At this stage I don't think you do. It does not work. Perhaps it is for a
dropped feature or a feature that may work down the track although I don't see how. Hope this helps. "Office_user" wrote in message ...

Track Changes in Word 2007
You get the same result in Word 2003... but, Word 2003 doesn't add insult to
injury by suggesting it should work in the Track Changes option. My guess is that this was an intended feature that didn't make it into the final product, and somebody forgot to remove it from the pretty Track Changes Options dialog box. This isn't the only thing that doesn't work. If you insert cells, existing cells are marked rather than the ones that are newly inserted. (Insert Rows and Insert Columns both are marked correctly; deleted cells are not marked, and you get the popup.) -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Summer" wrote in message ...

Track Changes in Word 2007
Yes I noticed that still and the only feature I would have liked was that a
deleted mark-up ROW would delete - so I still LOVE my VBA.... "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote in message ...
