Step #3: Sometimes you may not want to change anything in the document, but you’d like to comment on a section. To do so highlight the desired section using your cursor/mouse.

If you are reviewing a document that has been peer-edited by someone
else…
Step #1: Because someone has already peer-edited your document using track changes, you will probably skip this step. However, if the Track Changes toolbar is not available, then: -Click on Tools -Select Track Changes.
