Always nothing:

Step.x.y.z.u.v.w.r.s.t: ........
--------------------------------
(see the rest of this mail: "Version Control step by step")

There are many possibilities to try.
But, I ask you Lars: give me the right steps, please :-)
Give me an example, where "Undo last Check in" do something
At the moment, only "Revert to last version" do somethings.
But it do the same as "File -> revert to saved"
Something I can read the msg "Command not allowed ..."
but I'm not spedy enough to read it (yes, I look out of the windows into the
real world...)

ciao ciao,
antonio
