Word Document Review Procedure Suggestions

[FedSteve]

Word allows multiple reviewers to comment on a document simultaneously. Then, the author can combine the comments to be addressed. This is extremely inefficient and disrespectful of the reviewers' time. I'm wondering if there is a better option. Is it, simply, setting a schedule so that reviewers are not duplicating each other's work, and always see comments and changes that have already been made? I'm looking for a technological return to the old (effective) method of placing a review sheet on top of a hardcopy document and passing the whole thing around for red ink markup!

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
