create a revision table

[dazza_dog]

Is it possible to create a table of revisions and/or changes that is updated
every time the document is saved and/or printed.
The table is to include the Revision number, Author and date/time
and also the changes made.

Any help would be much appreciated

Hi Dazza

Is it possible to create a table of revisions and/or changes that is updated
every time the document is saved and/or printed.
The table is to include the Revision number, Author and date/time
and also the changes made.

if you specify _exactly_ where the author and esp. the "changes made" is
taken from (and how you want to display it), then I'm sure a clever
algorithm could be devised and proper VBA code written.

However, that sort of thing is usually done outside of the application
proper, IOW: in a document management system. They are designed for such
tasks, and "re-inventing the wheel" is usually not very efficient.
