Set display review default to final

[Nathan]

How do you set the display review default to Final rather
than "Final with Markups" so that markups/changes do not
appear when a file is first opened?

Thx.

Hi Nathan,

How do you set the display review default to Final rather
than "Final with Markups" so that markups/changes do not
appear when a file is first opened?

There is no way to change this default. There have been too
many complaints about documents being sent out-of-house with
changes and comments still in them (security risk) for
Microsoft to even consider making this possible.

You could use a macro named AutoOpen to switch to the
preferred type of display. for example:

Sub AutoOpen()
Application.ActiveWindow.View.ShowRevisionsAndComments _
= False
End Sub
