How do I wipe out all reviewing information from a Word 2002 docu.
This is driving me crazy. I need to get a 'clean' document with no reviewer
information. There is some information I need from an existing document. So here is what I did. - Opened a new blank document - Cut and pasted text from the existing document and saw that there is reviewer information in the new doc. - So I closed the new doc and opened a fresh one. Now, it has reviewer information even though there is no text in it ! Seems like the default new document always has some reviewing information - I searched and found NO normal.dot file on my c: drive - Obtained a clean normal.dot from a co-worker and saved it to c:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft Office\Templates\1033 and c:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft Office\Office10\ sub-folders - When I open a blank document, the same information is STILL THERE What am I missing and how can I fix it ?? Thanx |
