I would like to use version control on a text document but "Version" in the "File" menu is grayed out.

How do I get it back?

The 'Versions...' menu item is grayed out for new documents until after you save a document the first time. After you have saved it, the Versions... menu item should be available for you to use.
I save it, closed writer and reopened it, opened the doc, and added a line.

Clicked "File". "Versions" is still grayed out.

Let me take a guess -- are you saving it in MS Word format? If so, you can't version it. You can only version it if you save it as an odt file.

I don't know if this is what's going on, but at one of my places of employment, where OpenOffice is used, a secretary contacted me about not being able to version a document. I discovered it was because she was saving it as an MS Word document. Once she saved it as an odt file, she could version it.
