Yes - "Avoid it like the plague". Use Version Control Software or a
reasonable simulacrum, one is suggested on my blog. Wherever possible, keep
the document TRIM.

Subject: Versions in Word
Does anyone have any words of wisdom on using the Versions feature in Word?
I assume it bulks up the size of a file. I have used it occassionally and
found it useful, but I once had problems with a doc that seemed to arise
from versions.
Any comments?
