6.16 Turning on revision tracking in Word

To turn on revision tracking in Word for Mif2Go RTF output files:

[WordOptions]

; RevTrack = No (default) or Yes (turn on Word revision tracking)

RevTrack=No

; RevProt = No (default) or Yes (locks on Word revision tracking so

; that user cannot turn it off, also sets RevTrack=Yes)

RevProt=No

When RevTrack=Yes (or RevProt=Yes), if you leave cross references unlocked (see §6.11.2 Converting cross references to Word), you get change bars in Word for every cross reference; and if you also specify live hypertext links (see §6.11.3 Converting hypertext links to Word), you get change bars in Word for every hypertext link. You can lock cross references and hypertext links:

[WordOptions]

; LockXrefs = Yes (default, faster load)

;  or No (allow updating of xrefs)

LockXrefs=Yes

; LockHyper = No (default, allow edit) or Yes (when revision tracking)

LockHyper=Yes

When you lock cross references, they still work, but you have to unlock them to update them in Word; when you lock hypertext links, the links no longer work in Word.

In some versions of Word, even setting both options does not turn off revision marking of links.
