Specific Track Changes

K

Krumrei

I need the ability to not only just list the track changes, but the ability
to determine what the changes were besides Insert, Delete and Property.

I need to know if it was a grammar, font change ( bold, Italic underline )
or table and other cell changes to document and count all those types of
changes within the Track Changes.

Any ideas?

What you're asking for will require a macro. By stepping through the
document's Revisions collection (which contains all the tracked changes),
you can find the type, the content and location, the date and the name of
the reviewer, and some other information.

When you say "document and count", exactly what do you have in mind? I
suspect you want more than just a raw count of each kind of change, but
what?

In any case, the question would be better posted in the
microsoft.public.word.vba.beginners group
(http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...t.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.word.vba.beginners).

Sorry for the clarification issue.


1. I need to know what fields ( wdrevisionproperty etc etc. ) I can use to
extract more specific changes.

2. I have a macro built that pulls all document changes, but they only
include Insert and Deletes and Table Cell property changes, and then extracts
them into a new document.

3. I need to dig deeper such as knowing if the change in the document was a
Bold, Italic, Underline or Font or style change, I have 13 different changes
within the document that I want to have on a report, to identify what changes
happened on the document.

Again, I really need to know which VBA wd code I need to use to extract a
more granular piece of what changed, not the high level, insert and delete in
my Macro.


Thanks!
