Default Is there a way to view MY next/previous tracked change instead of next one overall?

Hi,
I was wondering if there's a command/button in Word 2010 that I can use to skip ahead to my next tracked change (or my previous one). I view documents with tracked changes from other users, and sometimes I want to see MY next change and skip over all other changes. I already do this by only showing my revisions, but not seeing the deletions that the previous users makes the overall text hard to interpret.


Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

The simplest way of doing this is to toggle the other reviewers' changes 'off' for navigation and 'on' for the actual reviewing. Although a macro could be written to automate some of this, I doubt it would actually save you any effort overall.

Hmm, I was afraid of that. Guess I'll make do with the macros I'm using now and just toggle them on and off. Thanks for the response, though.

If you create a couple of character styles – I use a cheery light green for New and a discreet grey strike-through for Deleted – you can tag your own changes with these rather than using the Track changes mechanism. I'd suspect you can then use search/replace to skip from one of your changes to the next.

Added bonus, thinking back to the first time I shared a Tracked changes document here – your fellow reviewers will see your changes in relaxing green/grey rather than everything in shrieking red. Easier for them.
