Track Changes - Revising existing Revisions, same author

B

BillBQ

When a Word document is tracking changes and a user adds some text to the
document this appears as a Revision in the document. If the same user at a
later time returns to the revision and adds some additional text (track
changes is still on) directly to the end of the previous revision there are
now two modifications to the same area. If I hover the cursor over each one
I can see that they are two distinct insertions at different times. However,
when processing the document with Revisions.Count or using the Reviewing Pane
the entire region is considered a single Revision.

This seems to be a problem because I would like to post process the document
looking for these Revisions based on their respective dates. Unfortunately,
if the 2nd Revision is anywhere after the first character of the original
revision, the Date property of the Revision in VBA is based on the original
Revision's timestamp. The timestamps of both only appear to be accessible
in the 'hover-over' text using the cursor of Word. Does anyone know if there
is a way to access the Date field of the subsequent Revisions in VBA?

TIA, Let me know if this belongs in another forum.
