SYMPTOMS
========
When you work in a master document containing a subdocument that has revisions,
the following problems may be encountered:
- The Accept, Reject, Accept All and Reject All buttons in the Accept or Reject
Changes dialog are unavailable so you can't review your changes.
- When you click the Find button in the Accept or Reject Changes dialog box,
you receive the error message "Word found no tracked changes."
WORKAROUND
==========
Method 1: Expand Your Subdocument
---------------------------------
1. Open your master document.
2. If your subdocument is not expanded, you will see a hyperlink in place of the
subdocument. On the Master Document toolbar, click the Expand Subdocuments
button.
This will open your subdocument inside the master document.
3. On the Tools menu, point to Track Changes, and then click Accept or Reject
Changes.
Method 2: Open the Subdocument
------------------------------
1. Open your master document.
2. If your subdocument is not expanded, you will see a hyperlink in place of the
subdocument. Click the hyperlink.
This will open your subdocument as a separate file.
3. On the Tools menu, point to Track Changes, and then click Accept or Reject
Changes.
MORE INFORMATION
================
When you open a master document, all subdocuments are collapsed--that is, each
subdocument appears as a hyperlink. Word cannot display revisions in a
subdocument if the subdocument hyperlink is visible.
You can click a hyperlink to open the subdocument and work on it in its own
window. If you prefer to work on the master document as a whole, you can expand
the subdocuments and work on them in place or switch to normal view.
