Delete All Comments in Word in a Flash
You needn't clear comments in a Word document one by one. Instead, bring out the big guns to delete all of them at once:
1. Chose Tools > Keyboard Shortcuts.
2. Under Categories, select Tools.
3. Under Commands, select DeleteAllCommentsInDoc.
4. With the insertion point in the "Press new keyboard shortcut" field, press keys to create a keyboard shortcut. (I use Control-7)
5. Click the Assign button.
6. Click OK.
You can now press your keyboard shortcut to zap out the comments.
The steps above work in Word 2008; they likely work nearly as described in older versions of Word.

Anarchie 3.6.1 Eliminates Version Control Bug
Anarchie 3.6.1 Eliminates Version Control Bug -- Stairways Shareware has released Anarchie 3.6.1, a small but important update to the just-released Anarchie 3.6. In 3.6.1, Stairways fixed a bug that would prevent Anarchie from being able to check for new versions of the program; this bug could also potentially affect the stability of other features. The update is of course free, and Stairways recommends that all Anarchie 3.x users download the 1.4 MB update. [ACE]
