If you have done everything that we have described above, then the first part is already done. Now in the review menu, click on the "Next" button. The corresponding area will be highlighted in the editing window, and next to the button you just clicked, you will see the options "Fix" and "Reject". If the selected fragment was a note, then the button will be one, "Delete". Actually, this is how, in turn, accepting each correction or rejecting it, in the Word you will remove them all.

However, sometimes there are voluminous texts in which there are too many such areas. Or, let's say, for you in the process of work, each of the changes made and comments made earlier ceased to matter. In this case, clicking through each of them can be a chore, so the developers Microsoft Word provided an opportunity to automate this process. Each step will be identical to the one described above, only at the end of the process, when you are already starting to accept each element you are looking for, you need to select the drop-down menu to the right of the corresponding button. In it, the user can click on the item "Apply all corrections in the document", and then the displayed and hidden marks in the text will be marked as accepted. Actually, in order to remove each of them, you need to act exactly the same way, that is, find the arrow to the right of the "Reject" button, click on it and select the "Reject all corrections" item.

Please note that in order to remove comments as well, you will need to carry out the corresponding procedure with any comment in the same menu item. Please note that in this mode, you will mark each of the changes and notes made, and not just those that are displayed in the selected mode. In this case, the selection will move around the screen and "highlight" the area that you are currently editing.

Afterword

When working with text fragments in Word, it should be borne in mind that, for ease of reading, the author or other users could make the notes and comments made hidden from other authors. Since, by default, a word processor won't display these things when you open a file you've received from another user, you may not know they're there until you turn them on. Accordingly, before working with it or transferring it somewhere, you should check the presence of peer-reviewed areas, and if there are, accept or remove them from the text. In Word, this is done with just a couple of mouse clicks.

However, you must remember that there is only one way to protect your edits from prying eyes: to create copies. The fact is that any user can remove corrections and notes from word document, since there is no distributed edit model in this word processor, this would be too much complication of the model. Therefore, if you want to create notes and edits for yourself only, then create a separate copy for yourself. But this approach has a drawback, because then you have to keep track of changes in the copy that you left for public use.

Tracking revisions makes it easy to keep track of the changes you and your colleagues make. Fixes are suggestions that you can review and then remove or apply permanently.

Many users of the Word program know how to use the edit mode. This mode is quite popular in editorial circles, when the received work needs to be sent for revision, while indicating all the shortcomings. And if you are still an inexperienced user, then perhaps you do not know how to remove the correction area in Word, or the author himself does not know. In any case, in this article we will understand in detail how to do it. Namely, how to accept changes and how to delete comments.

We accept changes

Before talking about how to remove an area, you must first familiarize yourself with the toolbar. In the "Review" tab, you are only interested in one group - "Changes". It is in it that the tools that will help say goodbye to the correction area in the document are located.

So, you have a document in front of you, which was edited using the "Corrections" tool. You understand that you need to correct the text, and you want to remove the comments of the verifier. To do this, in the Fixups tool group, click Next. You will be taken to the first remark. There are two options: you can click on the "Accept" button or on the "Reject" button.

After clicking on the "Accept" button, the changes made by the editor will be accepted and the text will be corrected. If you do not agree with the comments and want to leave the text the same, then click the "Reject" button so that the correction of the text ("Word") does not occur.

So, methodically, one by one, delete the note, accepting it or, conversely, rejecting it.

We accept all changes immediately

So, we have already figured out how to remove the correction area in the Word, using the gradual acceptance or rejection of comments, but what if all the comments are relevant in the text and you want to instantly accept all of them. Or just reject them all at once. Thankfully it can be done.

To immediately accept all changes, you need to click on the arrow in the "Changes" tool group, which is located under the "Accept" button, and select "Accept all changes" in the drop-down list.

If you want to immediately reject them, then you need to do all the same manipulations with the "Reject" button.

Removing notes

Finally, it will be told how to remove the correction area in Word if other users made notes. The bottom line is that in this case the above methods do not work.

However, doing so is just as easy. You just need to select the note that you want to delete, and in the "Notes" tool group, click on the "Delete" button.
