MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / August 2006Markup View: PLEASE DIE!
I am using Office 2003 on Windows XP. I have a program that copies an MS-Word page from a document that is set to Markup view. My program turns Markup off, then copies the page into a new document, saves the file - with Markup off - and closes it. However, when the new document is opened, the #@%* Markup view is on again! Does anyone have a clue as to how I can kill this view permanently when creating the new document? I have the following function that sets the view: Private Function WordSetView() ActiveWindow.View.ShowRevisionsAndComments = False ActiveDocument.TrackRevisions = False ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.View.SeekView = wdSeekMainDocument ActiveWindow.View.SplitSpecial = wdPaneNone ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintView End Function Please help, I'm frustrated beyond belief. See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trackchanges/HowTrackChangesWorks.html#Copying.

Thanks Stefan, it still does not work, however, this may be because I am automating Word from Excel and I'm creating a document template based on the original document to include the headers and footers. But it still seems that no matter what I do, I can't get Markup to die. Is there a way in code to permanently remove all the tracked changes? Can you please post example code to do so? Thanks again. > See > http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trackchanges/HowTrackChangesWorks.html#Copying. [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > > > Please help, I'm frustrated beyond belief.

(I didn't test this postulation.) Or maybe some other template add-in attached to the Word application you're using had its trackchanges set to True when it was created, saved, and added-in? > original document to include the headers and footers. > [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] >>> >>> Please help, I'm frustrated beyond belief.

If your talking about leftover-unresolved-previously-tracked changes still showing up, then according to the 'HowTrackChangesWorks' link below, you must accept or reject them, to get them to disappear. Then turn off track changes. As far as code you can record a macro while performing that task in Word or use ActiveDocument.AcceptAllRevisions to accept all changes then ActiveDocument.TrackRevisions = False to stop any further tracking. > Thanks again. > [quoted text clipped - 28 lines] >>> >>> Please help, I'm frustrated beyond belief. SignatureRuss drsmN0SPAMikleAThotmailD0Tcom.INVALID According to the "How to copy text containing tracking changes" section of the article at http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trackchanges/HowTrackChangesWorks.html, copying from a document where the tracking is ON to a document where tracking is OFF, should ensure that the target document does not have track changes activated. But, on the other hand, if you want to explicitly turn the tracking off, the following simple code should do the trick: Dim r As Revision For Each r In ActiveDocument.Revisions r.Accept Next r ActiveDocument.TrackRevisions = False SignatureStefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP > Thanks Stefan, it still does not work, however, this may be because I am > automating Word from Excel and I'm creating a document template based on the [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > > See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/trackchanges/HowTrackChangesWorks.html#Copying. > > > I am using Office 2003 on Windows XP. > > > [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > > > > > > Please help, I'm frustrated beyond belief.
