Version Control Macro

[Chris Shaw]

I am having a little bit of a problem with a document and version
controlling it at work and would like to create a macro or couple of
macros to help.

Basically i have no experience of VBA, but have fiddled with it in
access a little (mainly cut/pasting etc...).

I would like to create 3 buttons on the toolbar that allow me to
increment part of the version number. It is currently in the form of:

2.4.01.01

I only want to be able to click a button to increment the last 3
levels of version. Currently i am doing this with a document custom
property but as i am saving every 10-15 mins i struggle to keep track.

It would be perfect if someone had some code and a few moments to
explain how to use it properly that incremented the number (at one of
the levels) and then saved the document with the version number in the
filename.

I appreciate this may be a bit of effort for someone to reply but i
promise any help received will be really appreciated.

Thanks - Cheryl
