Can 'Track Changes' use color to show changes by 2 or 3 editors?

[Guest]

A long report is being reviewed by different people. Using the "Track
Changes" feature, Is it possible for others to see the comments and identify
the editors by looking at the color of the changes?

Yes, if you set the color to "By Author" on the Track Changes tab of Tools |
Options. You can't choose the colors, and they may be different for every
viewer (that is, your comments may be red on your machine and blue on
someone else's), but they will be different colors and will be internally
consistent (that is, all your comments will be the same color--and a
different color from everyone else's--on a given machine).
