Allow 'accept all formatting changes' only in Track Changes

When working with Track Changes in Word, it would be helpful to be able to
seperate the Accept All Changes into two other catagories: Accept all
Formatting Changes and Accept All Content Changes.

You can choose which changes to display and use the Accept All Changes Shown
command to accept only those that are displayed.

I do as Suzanne suggests so often (at least before W2007) that I recorded
this macro to accept format changes and assigned it to a toolbar/QAT icon.

Sub AcceptFormatChanges()

' AcceptFormatChanges Macro
' Macro recorded 5/3/2006 by PamC

WordBasic.ShowComments
WordBasic.ShowInkAnnotations
WordBasic.ShowInsertionsAndDeletions
WordBasic.AcceptAllChangesShown
WordBasic.ShowComments
WordBasic.ShowInkAnnotations
WordBasic.ShowInsertionsAndDeletions
End Sub

Although W2007 won't record these steps (well, it seemed to, but the macro
was empty except for its name), W2007 will run this one, which I recorded
using W2003.
