Hi Steve - thanks for this, looks very useful, I'll take a look when I turn my Vista laptop on later. Can you give me any tips on how to manipulate font colours? I can't seem to make sense of the colour selections; what seems to happen is that within a document, I can press the context menu key, and arrow to font and hit enter, and find a list of colours, but if I try to select one, when I come out of it, and do insert and number 5, it reports something completely different to what I thought I'd selected! - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Griffiths, Steve" <Steve.Griffiths@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, April 29, 2008 5:03 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Document problem in office 2007 | Andy, | | One way to disable track changes is with the keystroke Control + Shift + | E, which toggles it off and on. | | That won't get rid of the inserted and deleted text messages, but it | will prevent new ones being created. The keytips for accepting all the | current changes are Alt to go to the ribbon, R to jump to the Review | tab, A to activate the Accept control which gives a menu of options, D | to choose Accept all changes in document. | | Steve | | -----Original Message----- | From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf | Of Andy Collins | Sent: 29 April 2008 16:43 | To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | Subject: [access-uk] Re: Document problem in office 2007 | | Chris - track changes, I've never used this feature, so it looks like we | | need to know how to disable it?

As the text reads as I want it, how can I get rid of | these || messages? || || Also, most of the document is black on white [I get this info from | using || insert 5] but towards the end of the document it has become red on | white, || and from looking at the font ribbon [and I do have problems figuring | out || these ribbon menus, and never did use short cut keys in earlier | flavours | of || word, so don't know how to bypass the use of the alt key and arrow | keys to || access menus] I can't figure out how to change from red on white back | to || black on white! || || Again, near the end of the document if I use insert f, I hear "double | strike || through" in the layout info; I don't know what double strike through | does, || or how to get rid of it. || || I would be very grateful for any help in sorting this out, as it is an || important document, and I need to get it looking right. Office 2007 | feels || much less intuitive than my old word 2000! || || Thanks - || || Andy || || ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- || ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] || ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: || ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx || ** and in the Subject line type || ** unsubscribe || ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the || ** immediately-following link:- || ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] || ** or send a message, to || ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq || || ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- || ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] || ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: || ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx || ** and in the Subject line type || ** unsubscribe || ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the || ** immediately-following link:- || ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] || ** or send a message, to || ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq || | | ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- | ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] | ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: | ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | ** and in the Subject line type | ** unsubscribe | ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the | ** immediately-following link:- | ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] | ** or send a message, to | ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq | | | | -- | DISCLAIMER: | | NOTICE: The information contained in this email and any attachments is | confidential and may be privileged.
