Hi:

I was wondering if there is a way that I can keep the Tracking Changes
feature on ALL THE TIME - even when I close out of one document and go into
another one. My boss keeps forgetting to turn it on when he wants to use it
and was hoping there is a way to set it as a Default. We are using Windows
XP Professional, Word 2003. Thanks!
 
Maybe the following would help:

Add protection for comments and changes

On the Tools menu, click Protect Document.
In the Protect Document task pane, select the Allow only this type of
editing in the document check box.
Do one of the following:
Let reviewers change the document by inserting comments and tracked changes

In the list of editing restrictions, click Tracked changes.
Click Yes, Start Enforcing Protection.
Type a password in the Enter new password (optional) box, and then confirm
the password.
Let reviewers insert comments only

In the list of editing restrictions, click Comments.
Click Yes, Start Enforcing Protection.
Do one of the following:
To assign a password to the document so that users who know the password can
remove the protection, type a password in the Enter new password (optional)
box, and then confirm the password.
To encrypt the document so that only authenticated owners of the document
can remove the protection, click User authentication
Stop protection for comments and changes

On the Tools menu, click Unprotect Document.

Note If you used a password to add protection to the document, you'll need
to enter the password before you can stop the protection.
