In Word 2000 I was able to print track change additions but not the deletions. Is there a way to do this in word 2002?
Thank you..Susan

Patch reliability is unclear. Unless you have an immediate, pressing need to install a specific patch, don't do it. |

Somehow, this fell by the wayside in Word 2002, at least in the interface. You can still use VBA, however:
– Press Alt+F11 to activate the Visual Basic Editor
– Press Ctrl+G to activate the Immediate window.
– Type Options.DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkHidden
and press Enter.
– Deleted text will now be hidden, both on screen and when you print the document.
– To display (and print) deleted text again using strikethrough, do the same, but with wdDeletedTextMarkStrikeThrough
