MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / May 2008Any way to accept format changes only?
When I compared & merged two versions of a document (with lots of tables), I got a ton of format changes. I'd like to accept them so that only the substantive changes can remain. But it would take forever to go through the 200 page document and accept the format changes one at a time. Is there any way that I can accept those changes only? Or have them not appear in the mark up view? Thanks. If this is Word 2002 or 2003, on the Show menu uncheck everything except Formatting. Then, on the Accept Change menu, click on Accept All Changes Shown. Or you can hide them by just clearing Formatting from the Show menu.  SignatureSuzanne S.

It won't accept a track change for a change in bullet number because the deleted bullet is still present as a deletion. Is this a quirk with Word? SignatureLAC > That did it.
