Protect Comment Document For Free

You can edit a comment by selecting Edit comment under the More thread actions drop down menu, which can be found in the top right hand corner of the comment. Note: In Word for the Web we have restricted the Edit comment option to be available only on comments that you have authored.

There is no way to lock comments without locking the other content as well. If text that is the anchor of a comment is deleted, that action deletes the comment automatically and without any intent on the part of the editor to change or delete the comment.
