Seeing deleted track changes
Would anyone know if it is possible to see track changes that have been
deleted in word 2003. I was told that whatever changes were made, they can still be accessed even if they have been deleted. It might mean copying the text to a different file. Is this possible. Many thanks |

Seeing deleted track changes
If the AcceptAll Changes command was used and Track Changes was then toggled
off, you will not find these easily. However, if the MetaData was not scrubbed from the document, then MetaData analysis will reveal the virtual history of the document. Search Google for MetatData analysis. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "keelie" wrote in message ... Would anyone know if it is possible to see track changes that have been deleted in word 2003.

Seeing deleted track changes
If the Tracked Changes have been accepted/rejected then there is nothing to
see. Word doesn't save revision history unless Tracked Changes are present in the document. I suspect where the rumor, that Word retains changes, came from is previous versions of Word. Prior to Word 2002 Tracked Changes were handled differently and one could suppress the view of changes in a document. Since this was a 'per document' setting if you copy/pasted to a new document then the changes could be viewed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beth Melton Microsoft Office MVP https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Melton What is a Microsoft MVP? http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/gp/mvpfaqs "keelie" wrote in message ...
