Let’s assume that you have a document to edit, and you have made several changes in the document. In the meantime, you have written some comments and replied to some comments as well. You want to combine the new comments with the existing ones and show them in a new or revised document. If it is required to merge the whole document with another one, you can follow our previous guide.
Merge comments from multiple documents in Word
To merge commends from multiple documents in Word, follow these steps- Open the revised document in Microsoft Word and switch from the Home tab to the Review tab. In the Compare section, you will see a button called Compare. Click on it and select the Combine option.
Now, click the folder icon visible next to the boxes to select the Original document and Revised document.
After that, click on the More button to explore other options.Here you will see the Comparison settings. As you are going to merge comments only, uncheck all the boxes except Comments.
Then, select the document where you want to show the changes. It is possible to show them in a new document, the original document, or the revised document. Choose an option from under the Show changes in heading. At last, click the OK button to start reviewing all the changes. If done, press Ctrl+S to save the document. If you have created a new document, it is required to select a location and give it a name. That’s all! Hope it helps.
