This post was co-authored by Margaret Plumley. Margaret's been a member of the Word program management team for about 2-1/2 years and worked for Windows before then. If you've ever collaborated on a Word document you know all about 'Track Changes'. In previous versions of Word, if you cut part of your document and pasted it at another location, the cut is marked as deleted and the paste is marked as inserted. For example, in Word 2003, cutting a sentence from the first paragraph of your document and pasting it in the fourth paragraph, leaves a deletion in the first paragraph and an insertion in the fourth paragraph. This is handy, but what is even handier is to be able to distinguish cutting and pasting from deleting and inserting. In Word 2007, Track Changes now includes 'move tracking'. If you cut a sentence or more from one location and paste it to another,
Windows 7 Ultimate Key, it is tracked as a move and not as a deletion and insertion. Nice. Here's a quick demo of this given by Margaret, and we've stepped through a quick example below. Step 1 Turn on Track Changes & 'Show Revisions in Balloons' Step 2 Cut some text (here we've cut the bolded text from the first paragraph) Step 3 Paste the text (here we've pasted the text in the middle of the fourth paragraph) Step 4 If you're reviewing this document and want to see where the moved text was originally, click the "Go" button in the 'Moved' balloons and you'll be taken to other end of the move. Let us know what you think… - Margaret and Jonathan
