Thumbs up Answer: track changes grayed out

Hi there! It sounds like the document you're working on may have some restrictions in place that are preventing you from accepting or rejecting changes. Here are a few things you can try:
  1. Check for document protection: If the document is protected, you may need to remove the protection before you can accept or reject changes. To do this, go to the Tools menu, select "Unprotect Document," and enter the password if prompted.
  2. Check for read-only mode: If the document is in read-only mode, you won't be able to make any changes to it. To check if the document is in read-only mode, look for the [Read-Only] tag in the title bar. If it's there, go to the File menu, select "Save As," and save the document with a new name. This should remove the read-only mode.
  3. Copy and paste the text: If all else fails, you can try copying and pasting the text into a new document. This should remove any restrictions that were in place in the original document. To do this, select all of the text in the document (Ctrl+A), copy it (Ctrl+C), open a new document, and paste it (Ctrl+V).

I hope one of these solutions works for you!
