How do I turn on "only" change bars to track changes? When I add a word or letter it works fine, but when I delete a word I get the change bar and also the word has a strike through and can't be deleted. The options under the tools menu doesn't have this option. I have word 2002 SP3. Thanks Dave
In Tools>Options>Track Changes, select Hidden for deleted text. Or run a macro containing the following code: Options.DeletedTextMark=wdDeletedTextMarkHidden -- Hope this helps.
