Now, the tracked changes will copy along with the text. Q: When I use Tracked Changes the numbering of my captions gets mixed up. Caption numbering seems to skip some numbers.
How do I stop that? If track changes is on, and you delete a figure caption, Word marks the caption for deletion. It waits for you to accept or reject that change before it really deletes the text from your document.
