Versioning software for MS Office documents?

I'm trying to find out if versioning software exists for a business that needs to preserve space on a central file server by saving incremental changes to all our excel, powerpoint, and access documents. I've looked into subversion, etc, but we need something simpler for the office "grey hairs." Any suggestions for specific products or firms that provide something like this? Cost isn't be an issue. Usability is key, rather than advanced functionality, etc.



Many thanks,



Brent



Versioning software for MS Office documents?

So far for MS Office, Word is able to support versioning. It also has an automatic feature that you could turn on to save version upon exit.

However, for the rest like Excel, PowerPoint and access... I don't think there is such a feature. But you could manually track version by adding it in the File -%26gt; Properties -%26gt; Custom Tab.
