How do I save different 'versions' of the same file in Word 2013.
There used to be a version option in word 2010 and 2007. As an author I draft several versions of the same scene or chapter but don't want several files just be able to access earlier versions. How do I do this? Thanks in anticipation. |

However, you can do it easily with an Add-In you can download for free from Graham Mayor's site. Save the current document to two places add-in for Word 2007 and 2010 Although labeled for Word 2007 and 2010, there is no reason to think this will not work for Word 2013. Here is an older macro that serves much the same purpose, if a bit less elegantly: http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA=SaveIncrementedFilename.htm |

If what you're after is a single file where you can keep an eye on different versions of the content, you could perhaps call on styles: could take a while to set up, but then you could have (for example) bodyText_latest and bodyText_lastweek using different colours. Once that's working, pause for a good breakfast and explore the find/replace options for deletion using styles.
You could also apply colour/font changes by hand, though that take a bit longer to manage when you wanted to make a clean final version. Just out of curiosity – I've heard about various word-processors designed specifically for writing scripts/fiction. Have you come across any of them? |
