Default Word 2003 History of users editing a file

We have a customer who has a document on a server (Domain) that has been
altered by another user, can we find out who has viewed and or editied this
file other than the creator. If so how.

Many thanks
Dave

Hi ?B?RGF2aWQgSWxlcw==?=,

We have a customer who has a document on a server (Domain) that has been
altered by another user, can we find out who has viewed and or editied this
file other than the creator. If so how.

generally, no. If the company had some kind of document management software
installed, that might keep a log. But there's nothing in Word that tracks who
edited a file, and when. If "Track Changes" had been on, you might be able to
pick up some information, but that's not a formal system to provide the kind
of information you seem to want.
