Hi,

I hear that word tracks changes invisibly.

How can I clear these changes before I submit my document? I tried copying
and pasting into a clean document however that didnt work because of
formatting problems! So i wanted to clear it within the current document!

Rgds,
Dan

Accept the changes. Accept all.

Hi Dan,

Word does not "track changes invisibly", although it can track changes
visibly if you turn on Track Changes in the Tools menu, and you can choose
to hide them from view and then forget to remove them before submitting the
document. There are other items of personal information that you may or may
not mind sending out, such as how long you worked on the document.

To purge this stuff from a document, use the information in the appropriate
article for your version of Word:
