tracking
I am frequently given more than one document to merge, all of which have
track changes in. When I copy and paste them together the track changes are lost, only the tracking on the master document are showing. How can I keep the tracking on those pages that I am pasting in, as it is really important that all the information on the master doc shows what person has edited what? |

Open the document into which you want to merge changes.
On the Tools menu, click Compare and Merge Documents. Click one of the documents that has changes to be merged. Click the arrow next to Merge, and then click Merge into current document. Repeat steps 2-4 until all copies of the document are merged. Notes For best results when merging changes from multiple reviewers, click Options on the Tools menu, and then make sure the Store random number to improve merge accuracy check box is selected. Microsoft Word can store only one set of formatting changes at a time. Therefore, when you merge multiple documents, you may be prompted to decide whether you want to keep the formatting from the original document or use the formatting from the edited document. If you don't need to track formatting changes, you can clear the Find formatting check box in the Compare and Merge Documents dialog box. -- Who Cares Who Dares Who Wins "KarenP" wrote: I am frequently given more than one document to merge, all of which have track changes in.
