I'm reviewing and updating a document where a colleague has used comments for input. Sometimes my updated text solves most of a problem, so that the comment – while it's still worth keeping – only applies to a smaller block of text.



example

In the original, all this text was highlighted and associated with a comment. I've rewritten the lead-in paragraph, and would like to redefine the comment highlight so it only covers the unordered list. Any tips?

You could cut the lead-in paragraph from the document, then paste it back in again - before the reduced comment range.

That seems to do the trick today … wonder how I missed it yesterday :-}

(but Thread Tools only give me "Show printable" and "Unsubscribe", so I haven't managed to mark the thread as Solved)
