Linda R Guinn 11/09/2000 08:49 AM To: Richard B Sanders/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Re: Document retention, etc. We do utilize this feature. How often it is used varies from assistant to assistant. You would need to have access to a system computer or at the very least have the document transferred to diskette. In the past we have not given up anything from our system computers. Since we give nothing but hard copies, is this a problem for us? Further, our retention policy states that all drafts are to be discarded once the deal has been completed. Would you like to see a demonstration of the track changes feature?

It's a WORD feature that is used -- a lot -- for redlining drafts. I see it used all the time on documents that I receive from 3rd parties and I use it myself. It has become popular because other tools, like CompareWrite and similar software, are not compatible w/ more recent versions of WordPerfect and WORD, so changes are often missed in marked drafts. I learned during a recent visit at my old law firm that that they've forbidden use of "Track Changes" and are advising their clients to do the same b/c the past changes never go away and can be retrieved forever by someone who knows anything about word processing technology. Which makes for interesting results in document discovery..... among other things. Just thought I'd pass this along.
