How about a macro that adds the user's name to the document when s/he

You're assuming that they printed it.  More often it's a fourth or
fifth-generation "illegal" photocopy of an old document that's been replaced
by a new controlled version.

I have resorted to posting a big sign taped to the top of my computer, which
I flip over to cover the screen every evening:

	"IF YOU LEAVE SOMETHING ON MY DESK WITHOUT INDICATING WHO LEFT IT, IT WILL
BE THROWN OUT."

There was another orphan on my desk this morning.  I threw it out.
Eventually they will Get It.

Our procedure -- in which everybody has been trained -- tells them to fill
out and attach a documentation work order sheet.  My boss has given me
permission to post my sign and to follow through on the threat.

Sigh.  It's another danged Educational Opportunity, lucky me.
