Tracking Changes - Entering dates of changes

[Lisa Glase]

Hi:

I was wondering if anyone knows how to get the DATES of the changes to
automatically appear in the comment bubbles and in the sideline notations in
Windows XP Pro. Word 2003 version (without manually typing them in)? I
realize you can see the dates by opening the review pane, but it sure would
be nice to have the dates appear right there in front of you on the Markup
Screen - any suggestions? Thank you!

You can also see the dates when hovering the mouse above the marker in the
text. I don't know of any way to force dates to appear in the "balloons". FWIW,
lots of people complain about all the additional information that appear in one
place or another and want to know how to get rid of it. IOW, you can't make
everyone happy, no matter how hard you try...
