    Openoffice Writer - tracked changed

    Am having issues with compatibility b/w OO Writer and MS Word. I desperately need to use track changes, and would love to abandon MS Word altogether. However, using OO Writer, any tracked changes I make to MS Word documents do not translate well. In MS Word, the changes are there (I can view the initial document, and the final document), but there is no way to see the combination (i.e, a marked up copy).

    Can anyone tell me whether this is normal, or whether it is just me?

    Once I get comments and tracked changes working perfectly, I should be able to switch completely. But until then, I must stick with MS for work.

    Cheers, Moldy.

    Have noticed that MS Word documents open fine in OO Writer (with proper tracked changes and comments). But no joy going back the other way.
