Hi E-letter :) Hmmm, version control is not the problem i was writing in about.
Why should and how could i encourage my boss to use MS crap when he has enough difficulty adding a 1 to a name that ends with v2, v3 or draft2, draft3 or whatever?? Any chance of trying to answer the question or at least be less unhelpful?
