markups all show up as adds
When I compare/merge two documents, all the parts that should show up
as deletions are showing up as insertions instead. I can't distinguish between the insertions and the deletions. When I change the colors of insertions and deletes, they both show up with whatever color or format I designate for insertions. What's going on? I don't remember whether I've seen it working properly or not since we switched to Word 2003. It used to work fine in the previous version of Word, when it used to be called Compare Documents.

Does Track Changes work correctly otherwise?

Well, this morning it's mostly working OK except at the top. Near the
top of the test documents, I put "new" in one of them and "old" in the other one. They both show up in red (insertions) when one of them should be blue (deletions). But further down the document, the parts that were all insertions yesterday are now correct -- they're red or blue in the correct circumstances. I had closed Word, but I didn't even reboot or log off of the network last night! Well, it's working well enough for my purposes at the moment, but any insights would be welcome!
