DocumentLibraryVersion Object

The DocumentLibraryVersion object represents a single saved version of a shared document which has versioning enabled and which is stored in a document library on the server. Each DocumentLibraryVersion object is a member of the active document's DocumentLibraryVersions collection.

Using the DocumentLibraryVersion Object

Each DocumentLibraryVersion object represents one saved version of the active document. When versioning is enabled, a new version is created on the server when the actions listed below occur; additional versions are not created each time the user saves changes to the open document.

• Check In
• Save - A new version is created on the server when the user first saves the document after opening it. Additional changes saved while the document is open apply to the same version.
• Restore
• Upload

Use the Modified, ModifiedBy, and Comments properties to return information about a saved version of a shared document.

Use the Open method to open a previous version, or the Restore method to restore a previous version in place of the current version. Use the Delete method to delete a version.

Example

The following example displays the properties of each saved version of the active document.

        Dim dlvVersions As Office.DocumentLibraryVersions
    Dim dlvVersion As Office.DocumentLibraryVersion
    Dim strVersionInfo As String
    Set dlvVersions = ActiveDocument.DocumentLibraryVersions
    If dlvVersions.IsVersioningEnabled Then
        strVersionInfo = "This document has " & _
            dlvVersions.Count & " versions: " & vbCrLf
        For Each dlvVersion In dlvVersions
            strVersionInfo = strVersionInfo & _
                " - Version #: " & dlvVersion.Index & vbCrLf & _
                "  - Modified by: " & dlvVersion.ModifiedBy & vbCrLf & _
                "  - Modified on: " & dlvVersion.Modified & vbCrLf & _
                "  - Comments: " & dlvVersion.Comments & vbCrLf
        Next
    Else
        strVersionInfo = "Versioning not enabled for this document."
    End If
    MsgBox strVersionInfo, vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "Version Information"
    Set dlvVersion = Nothing
    Set dlvVersions = Nothing
