Insert-Comment: Balloons vs. Pane at bottom of screen

R

RockNRoll

Usually when I insert a comment, it appears as a Balloon on the right hand
margin of the page.

In this document I am working in now, when I insert a comment, it brings up
a pane on the bottom of the window.

How do I choose between the two?

Thank you,

There are two possibilities involved here. Assuming you have balloons
enabled on the Track Changes tab of Tools | Options, then the only thing
that would make a difference is the view you're in. Balloons are displayed
only in Print Layout and Web Layout views. If you're in Normal view, you'll
get the Reviewing Pane instead.
