How to get "Track Changes" to ignore "Field Code Changed"?
Dear all,
Are there any way to get "Track Changes" in Word 2010 not to track "Field code changed"? In "Track Changes Option", I can only un-check "Track formatting" but I cannot find any way to stop it tracking the "Field code changed" Thanks! |

No. However, you can use a macro to automatically accept all field updates:
Code:
Sub AcceptTrackedFields() Application.ScreenUpdating = False 'This sub accepts any tracked changes instigated by Word affecting fields – not field code edits Dim Story As Range, oFld As Field, oRev As Revision, Rng As Range With ActiveDocument ' Loop through all range objects and accept tracked changes on fields For Each Story In .StoryRanges For Each oRev In Story.Revisions For Each oFld In oRev.Range.Fields oFld.ShowCodes = True Set Rng = oFld.Code With Rng .MoveEndUntil cset:=Chr(21), Count:=wdForward .MoveEndUntil cset:=Chr(19), Count:=wdBackward .End = .End + 1 .Start = .Start - 1 oFld.ShowCodes = False .Revisions.AcceptAll End With Next Next Next End With Set Rng = Nothing Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
