Forgot to turn on Track Changes

S

Sean

I started editing a document and forgot to turn on track changes. I tried
undoing all my edits (ctrl-z), turning on track changes, and then redoing the
edits (ctrl-y). But, of course this didn't work. Is there any solution?
Thanks.

Save the document with the changes. Then undo all the edits and use File >
Save As to save it to a different filename. (Careful! Don't save both times
to the same name!) Use Tools > Compare Documents to compare the two saved
versions and mark up the changes.
