I want to make changes to a document without strike
through but with change bars to show something has changed
in that line.
 
Mick,


You are using Word2002 and will need to run a macro. The
following provides a means of controlling most of the
options. Here it is set up to show the margin marks only.:

Sub TrackChanges()

With Application.Options
.RevisedLinesMark = wdRevisedLinesMarkOutsideBorder
.RevisedLinesColor = wdAuto
' .DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkStrikeThrough
' .DeletedTextColor = wdRed
' .DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkHidden
' .InsertedTextMark = wdInsertedTextMarkItalic
' .InsertedTextColor = wdBlue
' .InsertedTextMark = wdInsertedTextMarkColorOnly
' .InsertedTextColor = wdAuto
' .RevisedPropertiesMark =
wdRevisedPropertiesMarkColorOnly
' .RevisedPropertiesColor = wdAuto
' .RevisedPropertiesMark =
wdRevisedPropertiesMarkColorOnly
' .RevisedPropertiesColor = wdViolet

End With
End Sub

Remove the ' next to lines you want to activate. Put a '
next to the lines
you want to deactivate. You can change color choices as
well.

You only need to run the macro once.
