Default File 'Versions' in Excel 2010

Hi All



I have recently moved from Office 2003 to Office 2010.

In Office 2003 i used the 'versions' function on the file menu to create and update new versions of the same document, with the old versions or revisions of the file available to go back and view at any time, this is a very useful function. See attached screenshots. Excel 2003 did not have this function.

In Office 2010 in both Word and Excel in the File Tab and under the info menu there is a Versions button that appears, however clicking on it does nothing. Is it possible in Word and Excel to create new versions of the same file? If so how is it done? See attached screenshots of Word and Excel 2010 showing versions button

I would really appreciate any advice anyone has on this issue, I cant find anything on Google.

The version functionality of old Word has been removed.

When a file is closed without being saved, it is autosaved by the software. The Manage Versions command assists the user with finding this autosaved file.
