A case management method is implemented by a computer processor for automatically controlling document-related operations within a plurality of data processing devices or computers connected and organized as an electronic network. The method includes automatically generating a request for an update file extension upon detection of a command to enter a document into the electronic network, inputting a response to the request including coding the document with an update file extension and entering and storing the document within the network in association with a filename identifier that includes the update file extension.
