Thanks, but....

This doesn't get this portion into my new document. I still need to cut and
paste this into another document. Yes, I could do what you suggest and then
cut and paste my new document into the modified old document - but - what if
both documents have revisions marked into them and I want to perserve both
markings? Eventually, I'll have to cut and paste one portion into another.
Thanks for the workaround, but how can I get Word to do this on the
straight?

Thanks.

Save As to a copy of the entire document. Turn off tracked changes. Delete
the portion you do not want.

Using Microsoft Word 2002 (10.6764.6735) SP3.

I have one document with revision text marked in it (additions and
deletions). I want to move this text to another document and retain the
revised text marked as it is in the original document. Seems like I've
done this before, but it doesn't work now.

If the second document has tracking turned on, all the moved text is
marked as an addition (deleted text is gone). This is what I would
expect.

If the second document has tracking turned off, all the moved text is
unmarked (deleted text is gone). This is not what I expected. Seems
like before, it would copy over with the same markings. I've included
paragraph marks with the move and included section marks with the move
and see no difference. Also, when I move with the section marking, the
default move is now "Match destination formating" instead of "Keep source
formating."

What do I need to do?

Thanks for your help
