When I view the "reviewers", this abstract name shows up. I need to change it back to my current name so other's will know the "valid" name that changed the data.     Was this post helpful to you?         Reply |   Top           Anne Troy 10/26/2005 2:19 PM PST   Answer   Try this: http://www.officearticles.com/word/change_previous_author_in_microsoft_word.htm ************ Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com "VenitaC" <VenitaC@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C47EA0AB-4B7C-4751-8111-6211D4B35ABB@microsoft.com... >I changed my "user information" name and then made changes to several > documents with tracking turned on.
