Does anyone know if there is a setting available to flag you that you still
have comments in the document, when closing a file. These comments are kept
until a final is ready to go out electronically, but if the last person
working on the document is not working in 'Final Showing Markup' view, the
document could be sent with comments. This is not good. We are looking for
a reminder that comments are still there when saving the document.

Any suggestions?

Try the following:
Click the Office Button to display the Office menu
Click Word Options to display the Word Options dialog box
Click Trust Center
Click Trust Settings
Click Privacy Options
Under Document-specific settings, check the Warn before printing, saving or
sending a file that contains tracked changes or comments check box
Click OK
Click OK

Yes, there is a setting.
