Thank you.

From the Tooks menu, select Options and then go to the Track Changes tab and
under the Balloons section of the dialog, select "Always" or "Only for
comments/formatting" from the pulldown alongside the item "Use Balloons
(Print and Web Layout):

Or, run the following macro on a copy of the document:

Dim acomment As Comment, commentrange As Range
For Each acomment In ActiveDocument.Comments
Set commentrange = acomment.Reference
commentrange.InsertBefore "[" & acomment.Author & " - " &
acomment.Range.Text & "]"
commentrange.Font.Italic = True
acomment.Reference.Delete
Next acomment

Hope this helps.

Thanks Mike and Doug..I'm not familiar with macros but the "show balloons"
option helped.
