How to show changebars on the side but NOT display the changes in the text??

garybeck · #1 10-31-2014, 10:52 AM

I am trying to figure out how I can show the changebars (indicators in the sidebars that something changed in the text) but not show all the actual markups in the text. In other words, I just need to show that something changed there, but I don't need to show what used to be there and what exactly changed, or the balloons on the side (all of which makes the text look very messy). I just want the changebars and nothing else.

I swear I've done this before but I can't figure it out now.

(I'm using Word 2010 Pro version 14.0)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm sure that the answer is in the Change Tracking Options dialog. My suggestion.

Change display of insertions to none.
Change display of deletions to hidden.
Set balloons to never.

I think that will do what you want.
