Changing comment colour - to show who has to take action

[Guest]

Hope this makes sense - working in 2003 and reading through a lengthy
document. Using comments to highlight to members of other departments, which
parts of the document they need to read/ commment upon. Does anyone know how
I can easily change the colour of the comment to indicate to other readers
which bits they need to look at?
Thanks
Suzanne

Hi Suzanne,

working in 2003 and reading through a lengthy
document. Using comments to highlight to members of other departments, which
parts of the document they need to read/ commment upon. Does anyone know how

which bits they need to look at?

The color of comments is linked to the user doing the editing. You'd have to
change your user "identity" in Tools/Options/User Info (which, depending on
your IT department, might not be possible).

Have you considered applying Highlight to the text?

Hi Cindy,
Thanks for your response. We'd considered using highlighting but just wanted
to find out if we'd missed anything in comment functionality that would do
the job!
