How to Copy and Paste Comments and Track Changes in Microsoft Word

Solved my problem..even on the Mac! Thank you.

thank you thank you!

Didn't work for me the comments do not come across nor is there a paste option for Keep Source formatting.

Multiple attempts using this with Word 365--it doesn't work.

Thank you very much. Such a smart tip that is so hard to find by myself ! 🙂

thank U veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery much

Amazing, thank you !

Thanks Erin!

So for assignments
Copy paste can be tracked this way too ?

Not using any other plagiarism tool.

Good 👍

You are a wonderful person. Thank you.

it is strange that in my word 2019, the pasted result is the same as the original texts after changes are accepted.

Thank you. Love the video. It saved me from getting a migraine. Thanks again and God Bless!

thank you

i ove this video

Thanks!!

Unfortunately this didn't work for me.

Yup, just what I was looking for and right when I needed it. Thanks! New fan in LA.

Thank you SO MUCH for these clear instructions!!

Hi Erin, this was very helpful thank you! When I have track changes turned off on both documents, I can copy and paste the comments/track changes. However, it doesn’t show that I have done this. I need to second document to show the track changes and comments but also to show that I have updated the document in this way. How do I get that to work? Thank you!!

I tried this and it still does not show the mark-ups when I paste.. any additional things I should check??

The comments still didn't transfer over, and I can't find "Keep Source Formatting" when I click on Paste. Any other suggestions?

How I can insert the same comments into 800 files without opening

I don't suppose there's any way to do this from word into outlook?

OMG! Thank you soooo much! I've been trying to figure this out FOR.YEARS! And your step by step was spot on, easy to follow, and didn't talk to the audience like a grade school teacher! Thanks and I have subscribed! <3

Thankyou this helps me so much, but what if i want to copy text from other word file then copy it into word file with comments without losing the comment, can we do that or is it imposible to do?

Great Video. Very Helpful and Well Produced! :)

nice

thanks a lot

Thank You Erin! It’s So Useful

Thank you sooo much! You solved my problem in a few minutes.

Thank you Erin! This is so useful!

thanks a lot

Clearly explained. I learned several things. I was unclear how to know if Track Changes was on or off. Also I have now successfully copied text with Track Changes edits and comments. Thank you. I subscribed and a thumbs up.

Thank you so much!!!

Lucid. I think you've made a model for software instructional videos that is well worth following. Thank you.

Thank you for the videos. I was wondering if you could help me with a problem I'm having.  I often have to manage multiple versions of the same document that contain comments and track changes.  Each version has comments from a different person.  I am able to combine the different documents, with the comments, into one.  When I do this each comment has the name of the person who added it.  However, when I save the merged file and open it again the comments no longer contain the name of the person who commented and all the comments are attributed to "Author".  Is there a way to keep the name of the person who added each comment after the file has been merged and saved?

Great video. Very helpful and well produced! :)

Thank you for putting this together. Simply and clearly put--saved me hours of extra work!

Nice

Hi. Do you have info on transferring text from a website into Word? I'm having trouble using Track Changes once text is copied and pasted. Thanks!
