If you switch on revision marking (edit -> changes -> record and edit -> changes -> show) then every change you make will be marked in the colour of your choice and labelled, too. These changes will be carried across to word documents, too, which is nice. On the other hand, word has a much slicker display of notes and collaborative edits, which is less nice. You can set the colour and other text attributes (not the font, alas) for your changes in tools -> options -> Writer -> changes The only drawback I know to this is that the word count does not ignore text you have deleted, which will normally be marked with an underline. I'm pretty certain that is fixable with a macro but it would be a time- consuming nuisance to write, and I am busy. -- Andrew Brown The email in the header does not work.
