From: removing all headers and footers on 13 Apr 2010 14:40 How do I change the two author colors (red/blue) in the word 2003 reviewing toolbar (show/options) to red and something else (like orange, not blue) that I can read better against the green background that I have to use because of my visual problems? I read Shauna's nice piece of reviewing but she does not spell this out. Also, can you add a third reviewer with yet another color? thanks.

On the Track Changes tab, specify the colors that you want. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "removing all headers and footers" <removingallheadersandfooters(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:D9145743-BA85-476A-BA95-E7736CC2ECA3(a)microsoft.com... > How do I change the two author colors (red/blue) in the word 2003 > reviewing > toolbar (show/options) to red and something else (like orange, not blue) > that > I can read better against the green background that I have to use because > of > my visual problems? > > I read Shauna's nice piece of reviewing but she does not spell this out. > > Also, can you add a third reviewer with yet another color? thanks.
From: removing all headers and footers on 13 Apr 2010 22:07 OK, I found how to go down the list, but there are several authors boxes there, and only the first one seems to work in my file. How do I set several other authors to work in different colors on this veery same file? on this very same computer and Word program? It insists on just the first color I set for the first author blank there? "Stefan Blom" wrote: > Click Tools | Options.

From: Pamelia Caswell via OfficeKB.com on 13 Apr 2010 22:22 If you select anything other than by author, all changes by all authors will be shown in the same color. In other words, you cannot set colors for individual authors. Sorry.

Exactly. You either let Word choose the color (the "By Author" option), in which case different users will have different colors (but you have no control over the actual color that Word uses), or you pick a particular color, the same for all authors. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Pamelia Caswell via OfficeKB.com" <u43222(a)uwe> wrote in message news:a67f38d0b9998(a)uwe... > If you select anything other than by author, all changes by all authors > will > be shown in the same color.
