Numbers for Referencing Review Comments in Word
Not in the edditing view as you are used to in Word 2010. Comment numbering only shows up if you go to the outline or draft viewing mode.
Go to the view menu and select outline or draft in the views section
- In the upper-right corner of the Word application, find the Quick Access toolbar.
- At the right-end of the toolbar click the down arrow and select More Commands... from the menu.
- In the dialog box in the Choose commands from drop-down select All Commands.
- Select Print Preview Edit Mode in the list and click Add >> to add it to the Quick Access toolbar.
After that, I clicked on Print Preview Edit Mode and I was able to see comment numbers. Make sure that you deselect the magnifier that will appear so that you can edit the document.
One more thing, the document where I performed this was sent to me by somebody using Word 2010. I do not know if the numbering will appear for comments added with Word 2013.
