Re: Users should be able to revert to 'old style' comments.

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

This option is still available, but it depends on settings on the student's
computer, not yours. If he is using Word 2000 or earlier, this is what he
will see by default. In Word 2002 and 2003, ScreenTips are displayed in
Normal view. They are also displayed in Print Layout view if balloons are
disabled on the Track Changes tab of Tools | Options. (Of course, ScreenTips
must also be enabled on the View tab of Tools | Options.)
