Word formatting/tracking How do I stop the nonsense?
I have three laptops and use all three to make changes to an ongoing document I have in WORD. Lately, I am completely baffled by changes that have taken place and want to stop all of it. I like to ...
Turn off track changes.
Accept all changes that have been made.
Controls for both of these can be found on the Review tab.
Charles_KenyonWill this change be permanent? In other words, will it stop until I change it back?
Would I need to "stop tracking" in all of my laptops? I simply want to be able to use all 3 laptops for this documents effortlessly. I want it to be like a piece of paper that I am simply taking from room to room. I need the changes to be visible in all three laptops, but without being continuously alerted to the changes being made (since they are being made by me).
- Track Changes on or off is a document setting, not a computer setting. When you turn it off, it stays off until you turn it back on again.
- What gets displayed for Track Changes, though, is a computer setting.
- to be clear...would I need to turn it off on all three laptops? They will continue to sync, right?
