How to Disable Revision Tracking in OpenOffice

OpenOffice is a free program that lets you create word processing documents, spreadsheets and presentations. You can share the documents you create among multiple users. Tracking the revisions made to a document helps multiple authors see what others have changed and either accept or reject changes. If you decide that you no longer want to use revision tracking, you can easily turn the feature off.

• 1

  Open your document in OpenOffice Writer.

• 2

  Click the "Edit" tab.

• 3

  Go to "Changes" and click "Record." The same button is used to disable and enable revision tracking, so if changes are currently enabled, clicking "Record" again will cause them to be disabled.

• 4

  Uncheck the box next to "Show" to ensure that no alterations will be visible.
