Using Word's tracking features are great, but make sure everybody who has
access to the document has their User Name set correctly. In a large
corporate environement, there is nothing more frustrating than seeing a
tracking pop-up identifying the change agent as "XYZ Corp." (the name is
ficticious).
Also, to ease the process, we documenters have View and Hide changes
buttons on our tool bars.
