    Password protection with a history .
    « on: February 10, 2015, 06:52:00 AM »
    Hello again all ,

    My company use all Microsoft software from xp to 8.1 and we manufacture hand sanitizer mostly for hospitals and we are governed by the FDA.

    I'm looking for a security software package that will require a password for each document when opened, currently we are using word, and if any changes are made the original document is archived and the person who logged in to make the changes is also noted.

    So If I open bluesoap.doc on Feb 10th and make a change I need to produce a report that indicates MP made the changes on Feb 10th and still have the original copy before the changes were made.

    Any help is much appreciated.

    Thanks,
    MP.

    In MSWord you can set a password for each document. Open the document, click on tool, options and click on Security. As far as making any changes and keeping the original document, you will need to make a copy of the document with a different name such as bluesoap-2.doc.

      Dave ,

      Thanks much and that's what I do for the documents I work on in Excel but the FDA wants it to be an automatic feature when it comes to the formulars used to make the bulk product. And it needs to log the user who made the changes along with the date and time.

        Pat ,

        Thanks much !!!

        Unfortunately we're on different platforms here and are using 2007 on some lap tops.

        I can usually find what I'm looking for this one is not so easy.

        Thanks,
