    I asked this question on Linked In and got no answer. Sometimes Change Highlighting is unavailable, it can be reinstated by adding the action to a ribbon using the "File>Options>Customise Ribbon" option but this is to my mind a bit clunky, where in the guts of Microsoft Project is this feature enabled or disabled? This link was suggested but does not appear to offer an answer.

    The only solution of which I am aware is to click File > Options > Quick Access Toolbar and then add the Display Change Highlighting command to the QAT.  From there you can enable/disable the feature.  The problem is caused by upgrading a user from Microsoft Project 2003 to the 2010 version.  Yes, the solution is very clunky, but at least it works.  Hope this helps.

    Dale,

    Thanks as always for your wisdom, I had discovered the fix you suggest but was hoping there was a "cleaner" way to achieve it, at least I now know the reason for this occuring.

    You are more than welcome for the help, my friend!  Will you be attending the Project Conference this year?  If so, be sure to stop by our booth and say hi.  :)
