How to Compare Document Versions in Word 2007

You might see a Warning dialog box letting you know that Word 2007 tracked changes are considered accepted. Click OK to continue.

Word 2007 opens a new document, titled Compare Result (number), which compares the two documents and notes all changes. This document uses a three-pane display of (left) edits per reviewer, (middle) the second (compare) document, and (right) the original document. Each reviewer is given his own color onscreen. For example, if your revision marks are red, another reviewer’s marks appear in a second color.

If your screen doesn't look like this, choose Show Both from the Show Source Documents menu.
