How do I show changes (stikethroughs, commas, etc) in a word doc
I am correcting a paper for my daughter and would like to show the suggested
changes in red ie strikethroughs, added comments, etc. without having to format the font for each insertion. Is there a way that I can overwrite the existing document? |

Within Word, go to Tools | Track Changes

Is there a way that I can overwrite the existing document? The feature for most of this is called "Track Changes". In Word 2003 or earlier it's on the Tools menu, while in Word 2007 it's on the Review ribbon. In either case, the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+E toggles it on and off. The formatting of tracked changes is controlled by the Track Changes tab of the Tools Options dialog in earlier versions, while in 2007 the item "Change Tracking Options" is on the same button in the Review ribbon. Once you have tracked changes, you can choose to view the document with or without the changes (called "Markup" in the menus), and you can use Accept and Reject buttons to make the changes permanent or remove them. In earlier versions these things are on the Reviewing toolbar; in 2007 they're on the Reviewing ribbon to the right of the Track Changes button. You can also insert comments, using a separate but related feature. In earlier versions it's Insert Comment; in 2007 it's "New Comment" on the Review ribbon. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
