I'm developing an addin for Word where i need to show comment that are written in the document (from Review menu).
The problem is that I don't want to show the "tracked" changes in the document.

When i modify the Document.ShowRevision property, both comments and tracked changes are shown / hidden.

I know that i can do this via UI by using the "Review -> Show Markup" menu and deselecting all but the "Comments" option but i couldn't find this in the API of the Word Interop dll.

Any ideas?

Hi Lev,

I've recorded the following macro in Word 2007: 

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'
'
  With ActiveWindow.View
    .ShowRevisionsAndComments = False
    .RevisionsView = wdRevisionsViewFinal
  End With
  WordBasic.ShowMarkupArea
  WordBasic.ShowFormatting
  WordBasic.ShowInsertionsAndDeletions
  WordBasic.ShowInkAnnotations
End Sub
