Word 2003 VBA Document changes

Question

I want to create a list or table of all the insertions, deletions and comments that have been made to my Word 2003 document. All changes and comments have been tracked. How can I do this with VBA? I can see how to detect comments with ActiveDocument.comments but there is no such property for insertions or deletions.

You may look into this thread:

Sub Get_Comment_Information()

Dim oComment As Comment
Dim oCommentRange As Range

For i1 = 1 To ActiveDocument.Comments.Count
    Set oComment = ActiveDocument.Comments(i1)
    Set oCommentRange = oComment.Scope.Paragraphs(1).Range
    Debug.Print "Page : " & oCommentRange.Information(wdActiveEndPageNumber) & vbTab _
                     & "Line : " & oCommentRange.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber) & vbTab

    

Next i1

End Sub

Hope this helps,
