I am working on a document in Word 2003. As I finish a chapter I send it off
to an editor for correction(s) and keep on typing.
1) How does the editor mark the corrections so that I can see them?
2) Is there a way to automatically merge correction from the corrected
document into the one on which I am currently working?

Hi rogelah,

Word has a 'track changes' feature that your can use to show you what's been changed - but the editor has to turn the change
tracking on before making the changes. See the Tools Menu.

If the editor doesn't use Track Changes, Tools | Compare will show the
differences between two documents, effectively applying Track Changes
after the fact. See here for more on Track Changes:
