 Problems w/multi-user comments

It is difficult to manage or delete comments from

the Insert tab. Instead, delete user comments
from the Review tab.
 Problems w/track changes
If you’re having trouble turning track changes off, be sure that it is unlocked.
This is what Track Changes looks like. The blue is unedited text, the
crossed-out red has been deleted by an editor, and the underscored red
word to the left of the deleted word is the word the editor chose to replace
the previous word. All red underscored words are additions made to the
original text.
