Special Edition!



















Having the "history" of certain files or folders may be useful
to remember as a "project " has evolved over time.

Some examples include: A report that is
be updated based on the results, a curriculum that
is enriched over time, etc..

To have order in this type of file just enter
the issue in the name of the file.

This will allow your PC to order, chronologically,
your files.

Example:

Mark Smith CV Ed.A. doc
Mark Smith CV Ed.B. doc
Mark Smith CV Ed.C. doc
...
...

The only care is to create the file of the new edition
before starting to change, otherwise the "overwrite".
