I am trying to just display revision bars in the margin for changed text.
However, word 2003 automatically defaults to putting in strikethrough for
deleted text when balloons are shut off. How can I do what I am looking to
do?

In Tools Options Track Changes, change the dropdown for Deletions
from "Strikethrough" to "(none)".

If it is really Word 2003, then that option *is* available. If it is
actually Word 2002, see
