Hi Again-
That is a different matter. Track Changes is a feature of the progam, so
each user can turn it on and off at will in most documents if editing is
allowed.
If the users don't need to edit the file you can just Protect the doc, which
disables Track Changes since changes can't be made. If they do need to revise
the doc I don't know of any way to prevent turning the feature on as an
attribute of the file, itself. (Although I guess anything is possible if you
know VBA well enough.)
Continue to check back in case one of the MVPs tunes in and has something to
offer. If you don't get any more replies, repost the question as you last
presented it. About the only other option I know of is to sneak into
everyone's system and use the Customize dialog box to rip Track Changes out
of their menu... but that's a little radical.
Good Luck |:>)
