Final Display View missing sections onscreen

K

Kevin Sedelmeier

Hello. I have a Word document with tracked changes. When Selectin
Final as the Display For Review, completee rows and text is missing i
the tables onscreen. Those rows do, however, appear when Final: Sho
Markup is selected.

Does anyone know how to get the Final setting to show everything (al
text and rows in tables) onscreen? I have the View tab set to Prin
Layout. Although sections are missing onscreen, it actually does prin
out in its entirety.

I wonder if it is a permissions or security setting. Our Implementatio
team asked me (the technical writer) to look into it, but none of m
attempts have fixed it. Thanks for any suggestions on how to view th
final document in its entirety (without missing table rows and text
onscreen.

Which version of Word? I can't reproduce the problem in Word 2010.

Stefan,

I am using Word 2010, but I believe the Implementation guy I got th
document from is using 2007. However, when we were on the phon
together, he reported exactly what I was seeing. The document is mostl
comprised of tables and some rows are completely missing - not just th
text in those rows. The same rows were missing for both of us. Reall
odd.

Thanks a lot for replying.

Make sure that you didn't mark the entire table row, that is, up to and
including the end-of-row marker, for deletion.

As long as you have only marked the *text* for deletion the row should
still be visible in Final view.

Stefan,

I've noticed that this doesn't happen when using the Draft, Outline, an
Web Layout views. So, I have recommended Implementation view it in on
of those views when editing. That way their screen will match what i
printed. The Print Layout and Full Screen Reading views still sho
missing columns. Since there is a workaround of using other views, the
are good with that. So while it remains a mystery to me why the Prin
view has those glitches, it is not a real problem.

Thanks for all of your help.

I forgot to ask: No luck on the end-of-row markers, then? (For more on
nonprinting marks, see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/NonPrintChars.htm.)
