Can you track time used to edit a document with Track Changes?

[Guest]

I am performing a huge editing project, and am using the Track Changes
function in Word. The Reviewing pane displays the date and time each edit was
done, for example, 04/06/06 2:45:00 PM. I am billing by hours and was
wondering if there is any way to determine the exact start and end times for
each date on which I worked in the document so I no longer have to manually
track this.

No. At least not with enough accuracy that you could in good conscience bill
your client for it. If it is a 'huge' editing project you will inevitably
end up with multiple files (at least while it's work in progress) and some
of the time you will have more than one document open, so you'd end up
double-dipping. Stay honest and use a time sheet.
