Numbering in comment
For some reason, in the document I am editing with Track Changes, an
automatic numbering turns on whenever I add a comment. I can delete it and enter the comment just fine, but that is annoying. I've not had this problem with hundreds of other documents. Thanks for any suggestions to eliminate this. |

Numbering in comment
Is the numbering in the comment itself? In that case, the problem could be
that the style "Comment text" (automatically applied to comments) has been defined as a numbered style. You could check the style definition. -- Regards Lene Fredborg DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Kristin" wrote: For some reason, in the document I am editing with Track Changes, an automatic numbering turns on whenever I add a comment.

Numbering in comment
Yes, it is in the comment. How do I check (and turn off!) the style
definition for all of the comments without having to do it individually? thanks. "Lene Fredborg" wrote: Is the numbering in the comment itself?

Numbering in comment
The comments still need to use the "Comment Text" style so you need to modify
the style in case it has been defined with numbering. See this article for details about how to modify a style: http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...ifyAStyle.html In Step 2 in the article where it says: "In the Modify Style dialog, click Format. Choose one of the characteristics of the style to modify: Font, Paragraph etc.", select "Numbering" to open the Bullets and Numbering dialog box. If the numbering is not set to "None" it indicates that the number in the comment comes from the style. Click "None" - then click OK in each dialog box. -- Regards Lene Fredborg DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Kristin" wrote: Yes, it is in the comment.
