Hi E-letter :)
Hmmm, version control is not the problem i was writing in about.  

Why should and how could i encourage my boss to use MS crap when he has enough difficulty adding a 
1 to a name that ends with v2, v3 or draft2, draft3 or whatever??  

Any chance of trying to answer the question or at least be less unhelpful?
Regards from
Tom :)

It does have a slight advantage in that it forces my boss to effectively
make backups and i am gradually encouraging a standard versioning system
other than
filename-draft.doc
filename-final.doc
filename-FINAL.doc
filename-revised.doc
filename-final.doc
in roughly random order and sometimes without the filename part so folders
end up full of documents that could be about anything.  Draft does not
always come first and may even be the final and revised might be a revised
draft or just be a draft.  Hence frequent shouts of "so which one am i
supposed to open?".  It's slow going but at least we seem to make occasional
steps forwards.


For proper version control, either use m$ sharepoint, or use LO fodt
option (i.e. flat xml output) with subversion (ultravnc client or
command terminal).
