I do not see any comment in MS Word 2013 when I open a document that was created in Word 2010.



I can create a New Comment OK, but it seems that old comments are lost.
Both "Next" and "Previous" icons under "Comments" group are disabled.
BTW: I can see all tracked changes OK.

I use the most recent version of Word 2013 according to File/Account/Product information.

See if the discussion in the following link helps: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/o...d-17c756aba111

Thank you macropod,

I already discovered this discussion about tracked changes.
It did not help me.
It seems to me that this discussion has nothing to do with Comments that are not related to tracked changes.

From what I can see of the latest discussions in that thread, your problem has indeed been resolved. Correct?

It looks like the following advice by Stefan Blom resolved this issue:
"... change the Display for Review drop down from "Simple Markup" to "All Markup" on the Review tab."
----
However I am not 100% sure about it.
Last week comments/tracked changes behaved differently.
I was able to see tracked changes but was NOT able to see Comments.
Also "Previous" and "Next" icons under "Comments" group were disabled.
----
Today when I have repeated the same experiment on a new file, I noticed different behaviour.
Even when I used "No Markup" option, "Previous" and "Next" icons under "Comments" group were enabled.
So it looks like I can't reproduce the same issue using a new file.

I assume that the file I used last week was corrupted somehow when opening in Word 2013.
