tracking changes by ink color in "edit mode"

I need to either:

1) be in "edit mode" and still track changes (i.e., any new text I write has a different ink color than the original document)

 

or 2) be in "review mode" and not have to manually accept every deletion. 

 

Is this possible? If not, I will need to stop using Word after being a user for 3 decades.

    Dim arev As Revision
    For Each arev In ActiveDocument.Revisions
        If arev.Type = wdRevisionDelete Then
            arev.Accept
        End If
    Next arev
