Hi Louise

Within the Protect Document pane, you must:
1. Tick "Allow only this type of editing"
2. Choose "Tracked changes" from the list.
3. Click "Yes, Start Enforcing Protection"
4. In the resulting dialog box, add a password if you choose.

Does that work?

Hope this helps.

Hello again!

I have encountered another problem. I have changed the second part of the
Protect Document task pane so all changes will be tracked but when I try
to
click onto Start Enforcing Protection, it's greyed out? Where have I gone
wrong??

THanks again.

Louise

Hi Louise

The password option that existed in Word 2002 has indeed been removed,
and
has been replaced by a more sophisticated protection system. Try Tools
Protect Document. In the second section of the task pane, you can protect
the document so that all a user's edits will be marked as tracked
changes.
Then, click "Start enforcing protection" and you will be prompted for an
optional password.

You can then route the document in the usual way. A user will only be
able
to turn off the protection if he or she has the password.

Hope this helps.

Hi all

In Word XP, you were able to set the 'track changes' option on a
document
so
you could forward it onto a colleague for their input and then 'accept'
or
'reject' the changes whenthe document was returned. However, there was
also
a function which allowed you to password protect the document, so if
your
colleague tried to remove the tracking whilst they were working on it,
it
would prompt them for a password first.

I am now working with Office 2003 and cannot find the same facility. I
realise that the Protect Document dialog box no longer exists as we are
now
having to use the task bar, but as the password option been removed
altogether?

Can anybody help?

Thank you.

Louise
