Prevents redacted text from being displayed
How to Clear/Hide the Recent Documents List in Word 2007
When sharing a Word 2007 document, you may need to remove or hide confidential information. You can manually search for the data and remove it, but this can be error-prone and time-consuming. If you often need to hide confidential data in a Word 2007, there is a free add-in for Word 2007 called Word 2007 Redaction Tool that can be used to hide text in Word 2007 documents easily and much more efficiently.
Redacted text appears in a new copy of your original document as a solid black bar. Any text below the bar will be converted to vertical lines (|||||), making the redacted content impossible to retrieve under any circumstances, even if the party you are sharing the document with views the redacted document in a text editor such as Notepad.
