Word 2003 hung up on me recently. Now whenever I mark up a document in track
changes mode, it appropriately highlights the changes with my name in the
yellow boxes (which is good), but when I save the document, it defaults
those changes to
"Author" instead of my name and in my non-personalized color (which is the
problem).

It seems like something got corrupted, but I don't know how to fix.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Robert

Tools Options Security. If the box "Remove personal information from
file properties on save" is ticked, then Word will take out your name each
time the file is saved, and replace the author's name with "Author".

For more information on this option, see

Hope this helps.
