Track and trace
I have received a document that has been through the track and trace. It is
filled with format changes, so can I, in any way, accept just the formatting changes in one stroke? I normally tick off the formatting, but it does not work, once they are there. Hope someone understands my question, because the document is rather difficult to work with when all the formats are marked several times each line. Thank you |

Track and trace
To get rid of the markup, accept all changes in the document and then turn
off Track Changes. If you are using Word 2003, see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trac...l#AcceptReject. In Word 2007, you'll find the corresponding commands on the Review tab. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Enna" wrote in message ...

Track and trace
You can tell it to not display the formatting changes. In Word2007,
it's an option under the "Show Markup" dropdown. On Mar 22, 6:37*am, Enna wrote: I have received a document that has been through the track and trace.

Track and trace
Thank you. I know that, but I have to keep the track and changes for further
use. It is just the formatting I want to get rid of. I use version 2007 "Stefan Blom" wrote: To get rid of the markup, accept all changes in the document and then turn off Track Changes.

Track and trace
Thank you. I know that I can tell the program not to show the formatting
changes. But this article, I have received from two authors, who have both corrected the manuscript, and they did not turn off the format tracking. I have to preserve the text changes, so I can just not accept all changes. But again thank you for trying. "Peter T. Daniels" wrote: You can tell it to not display the formatting changes.

Track and trace
I think you have missed the intepretation of the the responses you got.
What you can do is turn off the show of all others options EXCEPT formatting, then accept/reject these. Then turn off showing formatting and turn on the texting options.

Sorry, I misinterpreted your question.
As Peter and Dean have explained, you can (temporarily) hide all markup but the formatting (in Word 2007, you do that via Review tab | Show Markup), and then accept all changes shown (click Review tab| Accept | Accept All Changes Shown). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Enna" wrote in message ...

Track and trace
This is not one step, but...
In W2007, go to Review tab, tracking group, show markup. Clear the check boxes before everything _but_ formatting. (But leave all authors/reviewers checked). In the changes group,click the arrow below "accept". Then click " accept all changes shown". I recorded a macro when I used W2003 to do this in one step. It does not record properly in W2007; though the 2003 macro works in both W2007 & 10. I'll post it when I get to my computer. Pam Enna wrote: Thank you.
