Hi I have been asked what SW writing tool can manage versions. At first I thought "version control" like you have in Software, but I found they meant maintaining multiple versions of the User guides at the same time. For instance, even when SW version 4 is released we will still have to update and maintain SW version 3, as features are added and developed. Some things in these versions are totally different, and some are the same and need to be updated in the same way in both guides. I was asked if there is a magic writing tool that does this. I think we could use conditional text in FrameMaker to do this, but in the end it is the writer who must set it up and manage it. Do other people encounter this scenario? What do you do? Any input or ideas? thanks -- Caroline Tabach Technical/Marcom Writer e-mail: caroline.tab...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to framers@lists.frameusers.com Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to listad...@frameusers.com
