<p>A method, system, and computer-readable medium to provide version management of a compound document in a document management system where the compound document includes multiple component files. The method comprises assigning a version number to the compound document, enabling a user to index the version number according to a change in any one of the component files, assigning a respective component version number to respective component files, enabling a user to index the component file version number according to changes therein, maintaining a record of component version numbers associated with each version of the compound document, and retrieving a version of a compound document by retrieving the associated versions of the component files. The method may be implemented in a multi-user system over a LAN or WAN network, and component files may be stored on a central networked file server as images accessible by the multiple users.</p> |
