Vertical bars for changed text
We're doing QA documents and would like to accept all tracked changes but
KEEP the vertical bars where the changed text occurred in the final document. Is this possible? I think I've seen it but can't remember the commands. Thanks, Susy |

Under ToolsOptionsTrack Changes, set the Insertions, Deletions and
Formatting to (none) and set the Changed lines to your preference - Left Border, Right Border or Outside. If you are using XP, you will need to do this by a macro as they did not make all of the options available through the above dialog Options.DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkNone Options.InsertedTextMark = wdInsertedTextMarkNone -- Hope this helps.

Does this then apply to all future uses of Track Changes? T

Yes, it's a per-machine (or per user) setting - you see changes marked
according to your current option settings; others will see them according to theirs. -- Margaret Aldis - Microsoft Word MVP Syntagma partnership site: http://www.syntagma.co.uk Word MVP FAQ site: http://www.word.mvps.org "Tom Smith" wrote in message ...

Thanks all.
But I'd like to ACCEPT changes and show the bars, not display tracking options. I think I used to do it in WordPerfect. Can this be done in Word? Susy "Tom Smith" wrote: Thanks.

AFAIK that is the only way to do it in Word.
