History files in MS Word
I am currently using MS Word 2000 and was wondering if there's a way where I
can find out previous version of the file. I have a files which is updated by other person in my team. I want to know how was the file before he made changes. Any thoughts? Thanks |

I want to know how was the file before he made changes. Any thoughts? Thanks There are only three ways to get that information: 1. If you have a backup of the file from before the changes, get a copy of it. 2. If the other person used the Tracked Changes feature, get a copy of the document and reject all changes. 3. If the Versions feature was used, look at the earlier version. (This is a rarely used feature, properly so because it tends to result in document corruption.) Otherwise, there is no history or other way to figure out what was changed. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
