Question about macros

D

Dorian

I need to create a set of macros to direct my users to do certain things when
a document is closed.
When a document is closed, I need to prompt the user for a description of
the changes and capture the users windows logon id, I also need to capure the
current date and time. I then need to save all this information somehow and
then rename the saved file according to the current date and time. Thus I
need to create a separate version of the document each time the document is
saved.
How can I do this? (I do not want to use track changes!)
I also would like to have a toolbar button which can display all the
versions of a document and allow selection of any one to be opened and allow
the selected document to be opened in addition to the one already open. Can
this be done?
Thanks.

Surely it would be better to create a template document that way th
original is never changed, you can then automatically save and date eac
document (including logons if you wish) everytime the document i
closed.Dorian;183693 said:

I don't see how your response helps me. Yes of course I will use a template,
how else can I ensure the document contains the needed macros?
