turn off comments to get a clean copy of a doc

[wzimmerzimbilo37]

I write a report, and then my team critiques it and I make edits.  Once its finished I can't seem to get a clean copy without the comments on a side bar.  I have resorted to copy pasting and naming the edited final version.  I need to know how to turn off the comments so they disappear when I am ready to send it out to a customer.

Thanks,

@wzimmerzimbilo37 On the Review tab of the ribbon, expand the Delete drop-down in the Comments section of the Ribbon and then click on Delete All Comments in Document. Save the file with a new name if appropriate.

@Doug_Robbins_Word_MVP   thank you!  I knew there was an easy fix for that. 

Cheers, (:
