Thanks Doug and Suzanne, but those suggestions
did not work. Maybe it is because I am running
MS-Word 2002 SP3?

I set "Final Showing Markup", and I set "Track Changes".
In the "Show-Options" box I do set the "Changed Lines"
to marked, left margin, in black. I can see my changes
marked up, including those (ugly) deletions. Then I
attempt to "hide" them by DE-selecting the
"Show--Insertions and Deletions". As soon as I
uncheck it, both my diff mark in the margin disappears
and the (ugly) deletions.

Apparently there is a "Set deletions to Hidden" option
on the NEW versions of MS-Word which I do not have?

Thanks much,
Ed
