Morning all.
I don't know if a recent background upgrade has occurred but now when I open
a file received from a contributor I get a message bar, which I have never
seen before, saying "Do you want to merge changes in <filename> back into
<filename>?" with the options of "Yes", "No", and "No and don't ask again".
As I work with many contributors and they all work on files I created and
they are returning to me, you can imagine that this message is starting to
get irritating. I don't think I have changed any setting but does anyone know
how to turn this feature off?
Many thanks

Spot on Suzanne, as usual.
The company has recently gone over to Outlook (which I have not used for
many years) so no wonder I could not find any setting in Word to stop this.
Many, many thanks.
