    I am very grateful for this information. The VBA codes works Perfectly on a document I don't want the writer to know who the reviewer is yet.

    Thank you! It changed perfectly the comments, BUT not formatting, like highlighting. Is there what can be modified in the VBA?

    This appeared to work but I could not save the file without it reverting to the original Author.
    My workaround was to change the .docx extension on the filename to .zip. Then I opened the zip file. Browsed to the 'word' folder and then copied the 'comments.xml' file. Open the 'comments.xml' file in a text editor. Do a search and replace of the Author name then saved the file. Copy and replace the old 'comments.xml' with the new one in the .zip file. Now change the file extension back to .docx and the Author name is now replaced in the saved Word file.

    Many thanks for this. Works Perfect. A warning though; all comments will be changed, regardless of multiple authors. Something that didn't bother me.

    Here is a modified Macro that will allow you to first specify the Name your want to replace in case there are other comments that you don't want to modify.
    Sub ChangeCommentAuthor()
    'Updated by EntendOffice 20181112
    Dim I As Long
    Dim xOldName As String
    Dim xNewName As String
    Dim xShortName As String
    If Selection.Comments.Count = 0 Then
    MsgBox 'No comments in your selection!', vbInformation, 'KuTools for Word'
    Exit Sub
    End If
    xOldName = InputBox('Old author name?', 'KuTools for Word')
    xNewName = InputBox('New author name?', 'KuTools for Word')
    xShortName = InputBox('New author initials?', 'KuTools for Word')
    If xOldName = ' Or xNewName = ' Or xShortName = ' Then
    MsgBox 'The author name/initials can't be empty.', vbInformation, 'Kutools for Word'
    Exit Sub
    End If
    With Selection
    For I = 1 To .Comments.Count
    If .Comments(I).Author = xOldName Then
