I really love the "version history" you can bring up directly in Word.
Except that I wish I could add a little note in the version history.
I don't think it's directly possible in Word, but does anyone know of any clever way to achieve this?
Can you add a "note" to a new version?

As far as I know, that is not possible.

However, you can edit document properties or add custom document properties that are MetaData.

Yes, that's always an option.Charles Kenyon wrote: ↑31 Aug 2020, 03:20However, you can edit document properties or add custom document properties that are MetaData.
But I was looking for something that would appear directly in the "version history" pane.
It would be a really productive feature.

You might add your vote to Bring back a really improved Version history for usage with SharePoint Server and Allow naming of versions in Version History

Thanks for the links. I didn't know Word used to have different version-naming convention. I wonder why they did away with it.HansV wrote: ↑31 Aug 2020, 10:24You might add your vote to Bring back a really improved Version history for usage with SharePoint Server and Allow naming of versions in Version History
