Hi James When I tried just now to test the versions feature with Pages, there were three windows I could access. One was the current document, another was the version I'd selected, and the third was a set of version browsing controls. These allow you to go farther back in time by using VO-space on the date shown at the far right, and restore to the selected version. I suspect with some judicious use of copy and paste, you could move bits from one version into your current document. Hope this helps, Zack. On Aug 13, 2011, at 10:22 AM, James AUSTIN wrote:
