I have a word document that I used to track changes. Insertions are underlined and deletions are strikethough, and that's it. I have to send

settings toggles are set. Is there a way to do this - freeze the document
settings?
OR, I'd like to change all the track changes underlines/strikethrough to
regular word format underline/strikethough.
The documents are used for writing regulations where undline/strikethrough
needs to be shown so that the public can see the changs. Unfortunately, when
sent to other people that must process the document, the intended format as
set in the tools/options/track changes isn't the same in their Word, as was
saved in my Word.
Thanks for any help you may be able to provide,
Thanks,

Cindy,
Your macro works great. Do you have a macro that 'accepts the hardline edits' and renders clean text? For example, consider the following progression of edits where text in these brackets { } is strike-through and text in these brackets [ ] is
underline: (1) The original version, "This is the original description of our trip to the Grand Canyon." (2) Using tracked changes, this becomes, "This is the {original} [revised] description of our trip to {the Grand Canyon} [Alaska]." (3) Running
your macro on item (2) removes the tracked changes but leaves the mark-up in what I will call hardline. (4) Do you have a macro to run on the item (3) version that deletes the strike-through text, but keeps the underline text as just text with no
underline?
Isn't that just "Accept All Changes in Document"?
Hiya, I had the same question but solved it differently: I converted the word file to PDF and then back to word. Worked like a charm and without macros. If you dont have Acrobat DC pro you could try online word-to-pdf (and back) converters.
