So, looking in the archives, I see that Word 2003 allows one to go back to
the highlighting of comments rather than the ugly balloons. Unfortunately, I
haven't been able to figure out how to do that and the help files are no
help. Anyone out there know how to set that up?
Thank you.

OK, that works but the comment itself no longer shows up when I hover my
cursor over the highlighting. Is there something else to set? And if not, do
I have to edit the comment to see what it says?

Permit me to second that. Looks like this answers one of my own queries I'd
intended to post. Have to check first though, before sure it covers it all.

That makes it at least two now by 'garfield' that no need to disturb the
group's
peace with. Phenomenal.

So, thanx again 'garfield'...
