<p>The object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for document processing whereby it can be easily determined whether or not document data has been changed since a user last referred to it. A document data group, which holds a plurality of document data, and update time data for each user of the document data, which is held in the document data group, are held in user-by-user document reference time data. When the document data that is held in the document data group is read after a user is specified, the update time data for the read-out document data is read from the user-by-user document reference time data. Then, a check is performed to determine whether or not a person who performed the latest document data update is the specified user or is another user. In consonance with the result, the document data that has been updated by a user other than the specified user is so displayed on a display section that it can easily be identified. <MATH></p> |
