extract track changes information (inserted deleted text) from docx file - ms-word

Question

I'm looking to extract the inserted and deleted text from a word document after it's been reviewed. I've been able to extract the comments using the following macro:
Sub ExportComment()
Dim s As String
Dim cmt As Word.Comment
Dim doc As Word.Document
Dim workBk As Word.Document
Set workBk = ActiveDocument
Set doc = Documents.Add(Visible:=True)
Dim myRange As Range
Set myRange = doc.Range(0, 0)
Dim myTable As Table
Set myTable = doc.Tables.Add(Range:=myRange, NumRows:=workBk.Comments.Count, NumColumns:=6)
Dim i As Integer
i = 1
For Each cmt In workBk.Comments
myTable.Cell(i, 1).Range.Text = cmt.Index
myTable.Cell(i, 2).Range.Text = cmt.Scope.Information(wdActiveEndPageNumber)
myTable.Cell(i, 3).Range.Text = cmt.Initial
myTable.Cell(i, 4).Range.Text = cmt.Scope
myTable.Cell(i, 5).Range.Text = cmt.Range.Text
i = i + 1
Next
End Sub
But can't seem to figure out how to also get the inserted and deleted text from the tracked changes. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Just as you used the Comments collection in your sample code, you will want to use the Revisions Collection (for example, Dim rev as Word.Revision). Unlike Comments, Revisions has a Type property that you can use to identify different varieties of Track Changes. Here are some revision types:
If you want to see example VBA code that extracts revisions, go to
