Protect only part of a document and show tracking
I've been able to protect a whole document so that our clients can't turn off
the tracking which we want to display at all times, but there is a portion of the document that I'd like anyone to be able to edit without showing the tracking. I have seen the section about highlighting portions and assigning all or a group to be able to edit, but I can't figure out how to allow editing in part of the doc and protect tracking changes in the rest of it. Thanks! |

Protect only part of a document and show tracking
Hi ?B?Um9iaW4=?=,
I've been able to protect a whole document so that our clients can't turn off the tracking which we want to display at all times, but there is a portion of the document that I'd like anyone to be able to edit without showing the tracking. I have seen the section about highlighting portions and assigning all or a group to be able to edit, but I can't figure out how to allow editing in part of the doc and protect tracking changes in the rest of it. This isn't possible. Track changes is for the entire document. Conceivably, you could embed a macro in the document that reacts to the WindowSelectionChange event and turn change tracking on/off depending on where the user moves. But it wouldn't be foolproof.
