Strikethrough Deletions
I am having a problem with my track changes. I have used this option for all
my work but have never had a problem until today. When viewing the markup, I discovered that it only tracked my insertions, no deletions at all. I spent a couple hours going through pretty much all of the menus in word (I have 2002) and checking to make sure all of my track changes options were correct. I also looked through many of the posts here, but could not find an answer. I don't know what the issue could be, I have not changed any settings since I used track changes yesterday and no one else uses my computer. The changes were definitely tracked b/c I have all the insertions and I was looking at the markup, but no strikethroughs, which I really need to use. I tried opening a new document and they did not work there either. I could still use them on documents that already had strikethrough, but nothing new. Any help would be appreciated. |

Strikethrough Deletions
Run a macro containing the command
Application.Options.DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkStrikeThrough A co-worker might have been playing a trick on you by running Application.Options.DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkNone -- Hope this helps.
