Can't accept all changes!

[WG, LI]

When I finish editing a draft of a document, I'll accept all changes before
sending it back to the client. However, I've found that there are always a
small number of changes that don't go away. These are almost always
formatting changes in the document's headers and footers. If I go directly to
the change and select 'Accept Format Change', the change does not go away,
regardless of how many times I do it.

I don't have protection turned on, and I've unchecked 'Make hidden markup
visible...' in the Tools>Options>Security tab.

Can anyone enlighten me as to why this is happening, and if there's a way
around it?

Thanks in advance,

Does the Accept All Changes in Document command work (see

Stefan:

Sorry, I should have stated that up front. The "Accept all changes in
document" command leaves these few changes behind, in addition to what I
describe when I right-click on each one and select "Accept change".

Does it help if you copy the text to another document? See
