Hi Neil, Thanks for your ever-useful tips. Thankfully, no need to update macros yet as I'm firmly entrenched in 2003. But a new SOE horizon looms, so I'll put them aside for future reference. I, too, use hidden text for the 'client thinks it should be removed' stuff, but I prefer to just tell them Stet. Yes, you're right; often they don't like that. Especially, my favourite reviewer who likes to change has to includes, and includes to has on alternate pages, and area to vicinity... ... He gets a lot of stets. My favourite comment from him was relating to our standard company logo and name being on the side of each page in a ppt presentation with the logo text reading upside down if viewed in portrait layout. His comment "header text upside down". My personal notes are only on hardcopy in my review folders. In the Word file, I might include hidden text that says "see rev A review 22-Apr". Prior to doing the deletions, I also like to Search for hidden text and apply highlighting so they're all a bit more obvious when doing the final check. Fair cop on the multitasking. Though, according to some of my primary school reports, I got in early. Cheers, Terry
