Is there any way in word to track the change of a
deletion by using the changed lines only? In previous
versions of Word, we could not show any deletions with
strikethrough or balloons. It would print as Final, but
with the change lines. Now we have our customer used to
this format and they don't want to see the strikethrough
or the balloons. Is this possible?
 
Alison,

You will have to run a macro. The following provides most of the options:
Sub TrackChanges()
'
' TrackChanges Macro
' Macro created 11/19/2002 by Gregory K. Maxey

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

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.

End With
End Sub
