INTRODUCTION
This article describes how to add the Comment pane feature to a document in Microsoft Office Word 2003 and in Microsoft Word 2002.



MORE INFORMATION
By default, Word 2003 and Word 2002 do not include the Comment pane feature. Instead, these versions of Word include the Reviewing pane.

To do this, follow these steps:   Use the following code to create a macro: If (ActiveDocument.Comments.Count > 0) Then

ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.View.SplitSpecial = wdPaneComments

End If  Open a Word document that contains comments. Run the macro that you created in step 1 to display the Comment pane.
