I have created a word document that I needed to track changes etc.  But now that I no longer need to do this, every time I email the document to someone, it still retains the tracked changes.  I can tell Word not to show the tracked changes, but they are really still there.  I do not want people to have this document because all they would have to do is ask Word to show the tracked changes and it will do it.  How can I re-save the document with NO tracked changes EVER so they cannot reveal them?

Word 2007 cannot get rid of tracked changes

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
