Turning off change tracking does not remove
changes that have already been tracked. Instead,
turning off change tracking enables you to modify
the document without marking what has changed. To
remove tracked changes, use commands on the Reviewing toolbar to review and
accept or reject the changes.
- On the Tools menu, click Track Changes.
When the Track Changes feature is enabled, TRK
appears on the status
bar (status bar: A
horizontal bar at the bottom of the screen that
displays information about the current condition
of the program, such as the status of items in the
window, the progress of the current task, or
information about the selected
item.). When you turn off change
tracking, TRK is dimmed.
Tip You can also
double-click TRK on the status bar
to turn change tracking on or off.
Notes
- If the Track Changes command
is unavailable, you may need to turn off
document protection by clicking Unprotect Document on the Tools menu. (You may need to know
the document password.)
- If you turn off change tracking in a
document and change tracking is turned on when
you reopen the document, you may need to modify
the file properties. On the File
menu, click Properties, and then
click the Custom tab. In the Properties box, click each item,
click Delete, and then close the
document. When you open the document again,
change tracking is turned off.
