i am trying to edit a contract by xxxing over things i don't want included,
but i want to be able to see the original words below the x's. how do i do
that?

Turn on Revision Tracking (under the Tools menu) and under
ToolsOptionsRevision Tracking, set the deleted text mark to
"Strikethrough". Then when you delete a word, it will remain in the
document with the text struck through with hyphen-like characters.
