Is there a way that one reviewer can make changes to the same document in 2
different colours? (eg Reviewer 1 makes changes on a Wednesday, then goes
back into the document on Friday, (wants to keep Wednesday's changes marked
as tracked) but ALSO wants to make a second lot of changes in a different
colour.

Any help is most appreciated.

Assuming you have set the Track Changes options to color By Author, go
into Tools > Options > User Information and change the name (for
example, add a number to the end). Word will see that as a different
author and use a different color for changes.

Dear Jay,

Thank you so much for your prompt assistance. Your answer was spot on
correct and has now solved a problem that has been bugging me (and other
members of my firm) for some time now.

Most appreciative.
