turn off "track changes" in Word 2000
I did some editing, using "strike through" in Word 2000. Now Word defaults to
track changes and it red lines any text that I paste into my document. I have to highlight the text, then go to Format, Font, uncheck "Strikethroug" and then change the color from red to black. I have also tried going to Tools, track changes, and uncheck everything, but it still defaults to strikethrough whenever I paste some there. Any suggestions other than reinstalling? Ron |

I would try again, at least twice. I noticed you stated that you unchecked
everything. Maybe some of the other options need to remain. "Ron K" wrote: I did some editing, using "strike through" in Word 2000.

Nargaret, the MVP URL you directed me to provided the answer I was looking
for. I went into Normal syle and found that "Strikethrough" with red font was now "Normal". I Selected Font, unchecked Strikethrough and changed the font black. Thank you for your help Ron K "Margaret Aldis" wrote: I'm not clear from your post whether you are really talking about track changes or whether this is strikethrough font formatting. From your description of events it sounds like the latter (and nothing to do with track changes), and I suspect the answer to your problem is that Normal style is set to "Automatically update" and is now defined as strikethrough.
