Recovering deleted comments?
I think I know the answer to this but just wanted to get some input from the
Word experts. A user came to me today and asked if it's possible to recover comments from a word doc. I think what happened is a client did an accept all changes while we wanted to see those changes/comments beforehand. I think we are out of luck but if there is a trick to get them back that would be great. Thanks, T |
