Showing Changed Lines

[Guest]

Our office recently switched from Word 2000 to Word 2003. We are having
trouble setting the document to print showing marked changes as we had in the
past.

In the past when the document is done our track changes are set so deletions
are changed from strike through to hidden, insertions changed from underlined
to none and the changed line indicator is left showing on the left border.

We do this so the users of the instructions we produce can see which lines
have been update, added or deleted with out seeing all the underlines or
strike throughs.

We have been trying to do this with Word 2003 but lose any indication of
deletions in the left border when deletions are set as hidden.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi FergInIowa

Tools > Options > Track Changes. There you can specify how you want the
insertions and deletions to display, and how you want to indicate changed
lines.

The big change between the ways that Word 2000 and Word 2003 handle track
changes is in the use of the Reviewing Toolbar. For information on how it
works, see:

Hope this helps.
