As you have seen from Shauna Kelly's website Track Changes can do many
wonderous things, but not what you want. It can even allow you to delete things that you can then accept the change on an individual basis. I had a chat with some of our Legal team at were I work and some of them use a third-party software from www.workshare.com/ and from my discussions MAY do what you want, They are not too sure about this and as I have only had a quick preview neither am I. Maybe give this a trial see if it does what you want with less manual intervention than Word. Come back with your findings, this will be of interest.

I want to delete parts of the document and retain my comments. If I delete something I just want it to disappear. I guess what I am saying is that the options for track changes are not sufficient for what I need. If there was a way just to note my comments in a different color it would be just right. I need this to adapt an old document to something new that will have significant changes, not minor changes. Track changes suffices for minor changes (and I use it extensively for that) but becomes cumbersome if only the structure and some information has to be preserved in the new document. Amit. "DeanH" wrote: Track Changes is ideal for this. Tools, Options, Track Changes, if you want to change the colour assigned. The default is a Word-assigned colour by different authors (usually different machines) but you can change the colours to your own requirements. Hope this helps DeanH "CypherBit" wrote: Is it possible to change the font color for all new text I'm about to enter in a document. I need to edit a long document and want my comments to be in red. Can this be done without Track Changes? If not how can I do this with Track Changes? After 6 hours of editing in red I'll need to change it to green. Any help is much appreciated. -- CypherBit |
