Auto Versioning

Hi,

a question about versioning. It there an easy way in all office products, but largely word, ppoint and project to autoversion documents.

IE avoid going save as and then changing the number, instead clicking a link that will automatically save as the next version. e.g mydoc.01 -> mydoc.02 etc.

I know there are third party version control plugins and and the autorecover versioning, but the former is too complex, and the latter cannot be relied on for teams.

maybe I am looking to closely and there is a better practise solution out there ?

Unless you want to create your own file naming solution, or can remember to save manually each time, you are going to have to use a third party application - see http://www.gmayor.com/SaveVersionsAdd-In.htm
