Can you see this information if you use "Recover Text from Any File"?

It isn't an urban legend. Versions before Word 2003 stored the names of up
to 10 authors. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=290945#E0LD0ACAAA.

As for how to view them, right-click the file, choose Open With Notepad,
and scroll down toward the end of the document. Wordpad won't do, because
it
interprets the Word information in the file the same way that Word does.

Hi

Just curious, I remember something a while ago (might have been an
'Urban Legend' type of thing), where if you opened a word document in
notepad or wordpad it would, at the end log the IP or username of the
person who last opened the file.

I don't expect this to be true but was wondering if there is any way
to view this information? We need to check who has been accessing a
document lately and we're already past the 'turn track chages on'.

Thanks
