[Krzysztof Lebecki]

Hello everybody,



I am using Word2000 (+ Win2000).

I am reviewing someone's document and I would like to send him an answer in
a hardcopy-like form. (This can be an axport to a PDF file, for example).

Anyhow, what I am looking for is an outlook whe

1.. Either the comments themselves are printed in a self-explanatory way.
I mean: every comment refers to a fragment of text. I want this fragment to
be printed + information where this fragment can be found (page no, line
no).
2.. Or, the comments are printed together with the main text, but I see in
the main body marked text fragments regarding specific comments. I have
access to a color printer, if you need it.
Preferably, the comments should be printed on the same page, as footnotes.


What I currently can achieve with my Word does not fulfill none of above
needs:

1.. I can print "the comments only". But, what text they refer-to,
remains a mystery. You know only page number, even the line numbers are not
known.
2.. I can print "the text with the comments below it".
This is already better, in the mian body the comments are seen as [KL*]
bookmarks. But these signs show only the _end_ of the "commented text". I
want to see its _beginning_, too.
Is it possible to mark somehow the whole "commented text" on the printed
page?


Any comments, ideas, advices? I plan to use it in future more frequently, so
this is an important question for me.



PS Googling the groups I found few posts in different groups. That is why I
send this message to three boards.



Regards, Kris

You may want to ask this question in a programming newsgroup instead.

You mean there is no way to do it with "standard" Word 2000 functionalities?

are more then a dozen :|

No, not in Word 2000 at least. (Word 2003 and 2007 have the so-called
balloons, which make it relatively clear to which piece of text each comment
belongs.)

I was referring to the Word programming groups, for example,
microsoft.public.word.vba.general.

Thanks a lot. Looking at this group you can indeed find examples of macros
which need only slight adaptation.
