Reviewing Document Versions

If you are using Word to manage different versions of your document, you may want to review a particular version of a document at some time. To review a saved version, follow these steps:

1. Choose Versions from the file menu. Word displays the Versions dialog box. (Click here to see a related figure.)
2. Using the list of existing versions, select the version you want to review.
3. Click on View comments if all your comments do not fit within the Versions dialog box.
4. Click on Open.

At this point, Word opens the version in addition to your already open (current) version of the document. Word displays the two in separate windows, on-screen at the same time. When you are through reviewing the version, simply close it as you would any other document file.
