Hopefully someone can help with this...



I'm trying to insert multiple pieces into a single document. One piece is a several page essay that someone tracked their changes in and in which they inserted comments. I want this selection to remain the same without changing the formatting for the entire larger document.

When I paste the edited essay into the larger selection, the comments remain (margins change for my entire document though!) and the tracked changes completely disappear.

What I want: To put the edited draft into the larger selection so that:

-The editors changes are still displayed, and

-without changing the margins for any other pieces of the larger document.

Is that possible?

Thanks again!!!

Do you have tracked changes set to display in the container document? Note, you probably want to have them turned off before you insert or the entire insertion will also show as a change.

If comments/changes are displayed as balloons, they will mess up the entire document. Margins are not being changed, but Word reserves room for those balloons throughout the document.
