save as html with NO MARKUPS!

I would like to save my word doc as html WITHOUT the edit history in the
html doc. Who would possibly want that to happen?? Is there a way for them
not
to be part of the conversion???

Thanks

What do you mean by "edit history"? And which version of Word do you have?

Hi Cindy,

I'm using Word 2002 (10.4030.2625)

What I mean about "edit history" is all the changes that have ever been made
to the
document that you can display if you wish. You know they are red crossed
out letters or words. When I convert the .doc to .html those red crossed out
"changes" appear in the converted document. I have tried a number of
different versions of
Word to do this and so far only a really old one did not behave this way but
it had other problems.

I tried to "accept all changes in the document" but that had no effect.

Thanks

Hi =?Utf-8?B?Y2hpcHBy?=,

"Accept all changes in document" should get rid of these markups, permanently.
If that's not happening - and if you're seeing the markup in the HTML result, it
is indeed not happening - then there's most likely a structural problem in the
document. Was it originally created and changes tracked in an earlier version of
Word? There have been reports with difficulties accepting/rejecting changes
permanently with older documents in Word 2002.

In that case, try creating a webpage, as you've done, then open that in Word and
accept/reject the changes. Save, and close/open it again (still as a webpage):
are the changes now gone?
