Vertical bars for changed text

We're doing QA documents and would like to accept all tracked changes but
KEEP the vertical bars where the changed text occurred in the final document.
Is this possible? I think I've seen it but can't remember the commands.

Thanks,
Susy
 
Under Tools>Options>Track Changes, set the Insertions, Deletions and
Formatting to (none) and set the Changed lines to your preference - Left
Border, Right Border or Outside.

If you are using XP, you will need to do this by a macro as they did not
make all of the options available through the above dialog

Options.DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkNone
Options.InsertedTextMark = wdInsertedTextMarkNone

Yes, it's a per-machine (or per user) setting - you see changes marked
according to your current option settings; others will see them according to
theirs.

Thanks all.

But I'd like to ACCEPT changes and show the bars, not display tracking
options. I think I used to do it in WordPerfect. Can this be done in Word?

AFAIK that is the only way to do it in Word.
