Merge changes message

[Guest]

I have several documents saved in Share Point (website) which when opened
give the message: Do you want to merge changes in "document name" back into
"orginal document name"?

Is it possible to turn off this message?

I have been told that it originates when the document has been emailed.
This document has been emailed but is now stored in Share Point and opened
using Word.

I look forward to your ideas, thank you.

The message means that the document exists both on the share point server
and on your own hard disk. Nothing to do with emailing as such (although
that might be how you uploaded it). The point of the question is whether or
not you want to synchorinze the two versions.

You're probably stuck with it. SharePoint is like that.

Hi Jezebel

Thank you for your quick reply! Yuck! Yes, I see what you mean and now
understand this message. As I'm concerned other users will receive this
message also, do you know how I could turn this message off?

 

[Jezebel]

No, I don't know how to turn it off, or even if it's possible.
