Compare Documents problems with Tables Word 2000

Garry Kessler

I have a problem with the Compare Document function of Word 2000 and I was
wondering if any one might have a solution or a work around.
It involves comparing documents that contain tables. Whenever there is a
minor change in a table the result is that the whole row is shown with a
strikethrough and a new row below all shown highlighted. This both disguises
the changed portion of text (in many cases very minor) and overstates the
amount of change. Is there anyway of changing this? Or upgrade the compare
document feature of Word 2000 to Word 2002?
I realize that Word 2002 and Word XP has solved this problem, however, I am
currently working with Word 2000 at work and I don't think the company will
be upgrading to Word 2000 or XP any time soon.
I use the Compare Document feature of Word 2000 through Microsoft Excel and
I was wondering if there are any Visual Basic classes that might mimic what
Compare Document does, in which case I can add it to the code of my Excel
project.

Thank you
Garry
