Help! MS Word 'Track Changes' Feature

Posted By: Dave on 2009-03-20
In Reply to:


Hi,

Can anyone help with this? I want to use the track changes feature as I proofread reports, so the TXer can learn from their mistakes. After I send the TXer that version with the correction marks, I want to THEN REMOVE THE MARKS, so I can have a 'clean' version of the report which has all of my corrections to it, but doesn't show any red marks. As of now, I see now way to remove the marks. Thanks a lot.

Dave

Not with Word 2007. That feature is gone.

Help with MS Word 'Show Edits' Feature...

 


Hello,


I am proofreading reports as MS Word files. I want to send a version showing the corrections (in red, as MS Word does when you turn on this feature), but then I want to send the final 'clean' version, with the corrections but without showing all the changes in red, to the client. It doesn't seem that this is possible. Whenever I turn the show edit feature on, I cannot then remove the red marks later.


Thanks for help,


Dave


 


If I can remember, I like to use the "autocorrection" feature in Word that adds it to AC SM

automatically. No writing anything down. I don't take my  hands from the keyboard if I can help it. Sometimes I *do* have to go back and un-correct it so I can add it.


I do my work all crazy. Comes from so many years of not having spell check or anything.


Do they feature MT's?
a
No, this feature is not...
available in the current version. We will be adding it in the upcoming version.

Thanks,
MTStars Support Team.

what F9 feature? the only thing F9 does
that I am aware of is take us to screen to get line counts ??
New Search Feature (sm)
Is it possible to display the dates of the posts in the search results?  If not, add to wishlist?
There is a compatibility feature

There is a compatibility feature with Vista, or so they claim.  It's all in this Q&A piece in the Times here.  I think you might have to register for the Times to read this link but it's got some good info

I like the Glossaries feature sm
I can make separate glossaries for each separate hospital and then it doesn't crowd the main glossary. Also, if I leave an MTSO, I can just delete that glossary without losing all my main entries.
i think yahoo has a feature like this
but I haven't used it so I don't know for sure
Yeah, I heard they have that feature now, but...
I just don't use it. I use yahoo, but very rarely. I forgot about that though.
Well the backspace feature won't work as far as I know BUT sm
I use 48x and have that expand to 48-year-old and it will expand correctly. Some people I know use 48y and set it to expand to the same thing. Not perfect but hope it helps.
Are you talking about the AutoText feature?
To create a new AutoText entry, it's ALT F3.

I don't know if there is one to open the AutoCorrect options window by default but you could always assign a hotkey/combo.
you need to use the mail merge feature or
put the addresses in your text expander, which is much easier.
Use the pass feature to move sm
past questions that are stumping you for the moment and you will get them again after you've finished the set of questions.  Get a good night's sleep the night before, eat a good breakfast the morning of if you can.  Know your BOS and general medical terminology and you will do fine.
Cool MT search feature

Found this awesome search engine tailor-made for MTs. Works fantastically well. Link is below.


Actually, we've been handed back that feature.
.
what feature have "we" been handed back?

Maybe because Home version does not have encryption feature.
xx
I use the Compare feature on the tools menu.
x
I believe the "sentence continuation" is one feature that will not work nm

Goodness, if you didn't know about the command feature, you really need to
spend some time on the Productivity Talk board for tons of ideas.
Will this glossary transfer to the ESP feature in EXText?
I know I have emailed you before but I chose that financially I just couldn't afford a Expander right now and then I found out that there is one built into the EXText.  I'm trying to build that up but as I have never used Expanders before I am at a loss as to what to put into it.  Thanks.
You need to use the command feature of IT when you make your entry sm
Copy and insert your text into a new IT entry. Now go back thru the entry and each time you want a field to be placed, you have to hit the "command" button on the bottom left of the window. Then hit CTRL+F9 to create a world field (this will make the little bracket thingies when it spits out in Word). When you're all done, hit OK and there you go!
Where would this feature be located on the drop-down menu on top?
Thanks.
I just use the * and the search and find feature; seems much faster than macros to me. nm
;
Only if you're using the track changes or compare feature. Once somebody else has the document

I love Instant Text too, especially the continuations feature!

The link didn't show up, and the search feature
nm
Added Smilies along with new format available. Note that all new posts will have the feature
but old posts may not. 
Yeah! We would go to the movies for 75c - triple feature horror flicks -
Vincent Price and Boris Karloff. Of course, we were too busy 'making out' to watch the movies! That is, until the usher came by a shined the flashlight on us!
Does anyone find the search feature on this board doesn't work right?
I can't ever seem to find the old posts that I know are there by using the search feature.  Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me?

Start Stop digital player has a time stamp feature..sm...

I'm not sure if it puts it in Word or what it does.  I've never needed it. 


I think a program that would pull header information from Word and add it to a log file might be needed by quite a few MTs.  I don't know if that's feasible since everyone's needs would be different.  A lot of MTs like to keep logs though, myself included.


If I think of anything else I'll be back.

Info/help on open Word 2007 docx with Word 2003.

I have a friend who sent me a document with .docx extension, presumably Word 2007. I can open it in Word 2003; however, all I see are musical notes and highlighting, no text (this is a document with words and highlighting only, no pictures, music notes, etc.). I tried to open this with Notepad and only see the usual gibberish.


I know I opened another 2007 Word doc before and I remember seeing the converter load at that time but that was probably a year ago. Is there something that has changed that I'm not aware of?


Darn Microsoft.


Is any one running ExText with Word 2000 and EditScript with Word 2003 sm

I am interested to know if anyone is running two platforms with a different version of Word on one computer.


I am running eScription's ES with Word 2003 and want to run ExText but their version of Word is 2000.  Has anyone done this or doing it now.  If so, have you run into any problems. 


I can't seem to get a straightforward answer from the Techs at either company.    I can't just load ExText and jeopardize it interfering with eScription. 


I am interested to hear any and all comments.  Thank you so much in advance for any help!


 


it is attached to your version of Word. Open Word and it'll be on your tool bar. NM

I type the letter "l" in IT and the word cholelithiasis is my word selected?Why?
I want to get rid of this. Entered left again but it is still giving me cholelithiasis as the only word option to select from.

This is why I find this program crazy. Everytime I sit down for the day, there is a whole new experience with it!!! I have to stop and think before each word!!!
How do you make fields in Word Perfect like in Word? I'm drowning out here
in new keyboard commands, macros, etc.  Thanks.
In the future, please post word questions on the Word board.

Can you use the Word autocorrects or only Smartype? What about the Word auto text? tia nm
