MORE INFORMATION

If you select the Mark Revisions option and insert a table, picture, object, or frame, Word for Windows flags the resulting insertion as a revision to the document. However, the Mark Revisions option does not flag any formatting changes applied to existing characters, paragraphs, or borders.

Steps to Reproduce Problem

1. Open an existing document.

2. From the Tools menu (in version 6.0 and 2.0), choose Revision Marks.

   From the Utilities menu (in version 1.x), select Revision Marks.

3. Select the Mark Revisions option, and choose the OK button.

4. From the Table menu (in version 6.0 and 2.0), choose Insert Table.

   From the Insert menu (in version 1.x), choose Table. Accept the
   default settings, and choose the OK button.

Word for Windows flags the inserted table with revision marks.
