Word history

[Howard Brazee]

Someone gave me a Word document that I need to use as a model. I
started deleting old values, and it just created crossed-out blue
versions. I saved my document and opened it and still have the
history.

My Word is up-to date Word for Windows. How do I turn off this
history bit?

Why are you posting a question about Word in an XP group? Word is NOT part
of Windows and never has been.

Word news group:
Via Web:
http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...efault.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.word.newusers

In your newsreader:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.word.newusers

And when you do post you need to provide the exact version of Word you have.
"Up-to date Word for Windows" is meaningless. If you don't know the version
do Help-About (unless you have 2007 when it's Office Button>Word
Options>Resources)

Sorry - I missed in my newsreader. One row down.

Office 2007 changed the rules from Windows standards. I learned how
Windows worked, I knew where to find my version, and then in Office
2007, Microsoft moved the Help-About. I suppose they must have had
a reason.

Right click the status line of Word 2007. It's one of the options.
