Now the softwere is writen by larg team and all of them want to be sure that thay have the project up to date. I can't understand why such campany like Siemens have to re-invent the wheel. I work with 8 people and all of as work on same S7 progect. We never managet to have same version of the project. If one make change, all of as have to capy and paste. I have version "1", "2" , "3", "test", "from monday" and so on. We use Step 7 prof. edition v. 5.5 and i want to ask if there is version control in it. I also be happy if is ather program not form Siemens. Plese help, it's really mess here !

I think for you own control for your projects this could be meanful for you. See the following link: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/de/25468861 With best regards Cicero
