Instead, Word shows deleted text either as text with a line through it (if balloons are turned off) or it is hidden (if balloons are turned on). (You did this by choosing Tools | Options and on the Track Changes tab setting the Mark drop-down list for deleted text to Hidden.) This was handy, as you could easily cause Word to mark any additions to the document and hide any deletions.īecause of the changes in Word 2002, you cannot specify how you want deleted text to appear. In older versions of Word, you could easily specify that deleted text be "hidden," meaning that it wouldn't show in the edited document.

The Track Changes system was significantly changed, and the changes caused Word users to learn new ways to do some things.


Part of the changes introduced in Word 2002 involved a different way to deal with showing edits (changes) in a document.
