deleted words show up in blue, but not with strike through. Inserted words
show up as underscored. Have checked everything, cannot find how to change
the way deleted words are formatted. Have compared settings with co-workers
and it appears to be the same. When viewing track changes on a different
computer, deleted words show up with a strike-through. It is difficult to
see what has been deleted in a document. Help!

If you have Word 2002, Microsoft "forgot" to put the setting for deletions
in the Track Changes option dialog. Fortunately, it can be fixed. See

Thank you so much! Very helpful since we have been scratching our heads on
this for a year! The weird thing is, I have the same software and I have no
trouble with this. Why would that be?

Do you have Word 2002? That's the only release this issue occurs in.
