Hidden Data in Office XP / 2003
Believe it or not, many users of Microsoft Office do not realise that all changes and revisions they make are tracked and saved in the file. Even government has released documents onto the web that contained revision history information: it was possible to see every change ever made to the document!
However, there is a solution for Office XP & 2003 users:
Office 2003/XP Add-in: Remove Hidden Data
With this add-in you can permanently remove hidden data and collaboration data, such as change tracking and comments, from Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint files.
